I'm on the lookout for a replacement Rear cover for a Little Nipper, I'm not fussed on the colour!

Not easy: I have at least four parts ones here belonging to a collector. All have broken or missing back panels, or the case itself.

Aged plastic is now starting to fail. Even if it has lifting holes near the top .... do not use them.

Lifting Bakelite & Plastic sets by the top is very much asking for a disaster to happen.

I Managed to get the original Back Cover from the same Person who sold me the radio, it has 2 hairline cracks near the screw holes, which'll be an easy fix!
