Steel bases I can live with being made in sweet and sour country, but a part of me would die inside if any thumb latch bases or catchers were made there UNLESS they perfected catchers that rarely crack. That part of me would revive real fast.
Actually, I wish China would churn out reproduction 70s thumb latch catchers. Disregard my earlier statement!!

Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!
