Pictures of your vintage discs

[Roy]

I really dig the classic Discraft, Thanks for Posting Working Stiff. I think the marauder has one of the best stamps of all time :lol:

Man, this is really getting to be a really nice thread, if I do say so myself. Working Stiff, that is some great Discraft plastic! And Roy, very nice contributions on the Innova side of things!

I am wishing I hadn't taken a hiatus from DG in the late 90s and early 00's. I missed out on a lot of history and great discs. But I get to see it here! 8) Thanks!

Those Comets are soooooo purty! Drool!

this thread made me have a mangasm

Couple of more Innova tourney stamps.

A Shark like the one Roy posted above and a Glo XD.

 

[dgdave]

those are cool. I've never seen that stamp with the corp. logos.

I wish I still had my '89 Cirular Skies Glo Sanny rocs

 

[BrainStorm69]

Thanks, dgdave. I think I bought those when I was at the National Doubles Championship in Round Rock in 1991. Just some discs the guy still had left over from 1990.

I almost forgot to post my pride and joy (j/k)! I found this one a long time ago. Never tried throwing it.

I'm laughing so hard at that disc! Any idea what it is?

And a Ken Climo David Greenwell XD.

Did they make Rocs with that stamp?

I think this was a "F you" run that either Ed Headrick at DGA did as a dig aimed at Jan Sobel at Destiny Discs or that Jan did as a dig at Ed. One way or the other. Either way, its a relic of the days when the Kitty Hawk and the Super Puppy battled for disc golf supremacy. Then Innova came along...

I call this one the "trash can lid" :lol:

Roy, could you post a picture of the underside of the Dolphin? That was the disc that has the Monarch-esque wing, right?

If that's the case, wouldn't it be the other way around (i.e., the Monarch is the disc with the Dolphinesque wing)? :wink:

Nice! This explains a lot. I had one of those, but the stamp was so worn off I could never tell what it was. All I could recognize is that it was a circular stamp, had "ROUND ROCK, TX" on it, and a bunch of squiggles inside (I'm guessing the signatures). Now that I see the actual stamp it really fills in the blanks quick. It also makes more sense why a local here freaked when he saw me with this disc and traded me 4 brand new premium plastic discs for it. I was going to be okay with trading for just one disc since I decided I didn't want to throw Sanny Rocs anymore.

Dolphin.

Dolphin wing.

It's really similar to the Vortex wing, which was a Discraft disc that predated the Dolphin.

Monarch wing.

The Monarch wing appears to be more of a groove in the wing, while the Vortex and Dolphin were more of an extreme convex...convex? Concave? Damn, I should have paid attention in Geometry! Anyway, more of a big honkin' curve in the wing so that the inner rim is basically a 90 degree wall. It's not exactly the same, but very similar.

I've got one more of a Lightning disc my brother has...the A-T-6 Texan!

 

[dgdave]

Thread revival GO!!!!!

Just got this Proto/1st run (not sure) Phenix

 

[Roy]

I was thinking about this thread today... Everybody loves the classics 8)

Nice dig Dave :!:

 

[BrainStorm69]

First all my old Star Innova Minis...the last two glow... 8)
