Handwritten with a stylus? No.
BTW, if you hit the sleeves with a fine or medium wire wheel brush the metal won't look so flat.Last edited by AttyGuy; 08-21-2013 at 06:13 PM.

Is there any chance that York could have made the DP stuff? The bars look very similar as do the plates. If not, they did a really good job of making a knockoff.Originally Posted by AttyGuy

Lifting what I gather to be a 60's era York Oly set. The 45s are deep dish, but the other plates are not.
Lifting York Kg plates. The last images has some unusual York 25 kg bumpers.

Dave Sheppard, one of my favorite lifters and was quite the character. I believe booze was his down fall, and he died rather young.
Love the picture in York's lobby of Dave...~Dave

I had them as a kid also, and as others I evenyually learned to hate them. But I'll bet they got alot of people into lifting since they were cheap and parents felt comfortable having softer plastic laying around the house.Originally Posted by dumb.bell
Think of them as entry level, just like most of us started out drinking Schlitz, Old Milwaukee, etc.. I did and have since moved on to single malt scotches (occasionally

Anybody ever seen these? I'm guessing some sort of promotional roundhead, maybe given away as free swag?

It is a promotional item that York used to give out. They pop up from time to time on eBay.

Yes, so they must be older. I thought it was odd that there were no 25s in the piles. Just 45s/35s/10/5s.Originally Posted by AttyGuy

In case anyone is missing a single 30lb roundhead, here is one for cheap. Maybe she would ship.

Yeah, they're milled York 35s. "35" is counterclockwise, so probably 1970's or 80's.Originally Posted by Marshall28

I know this isn't the Jackson Barbell Club, but figured some of you may be interested. I have one last set of Jackson globes I am going to part with if anyone is interested, they are 65 lbs. I would also be willing to work out a trade for a set of deep dish York 45's. PM me for pictures if interested.
