Model info/markings Made in Canada. It also has a beaver!

How new is the switch? Old. At least 20-30 years old. It has a "Beaver Lumber" sticker. My Dad would have bought it in Brandon Manitoba. Probably hadn't been touched in 5 years.

How do you like the switch? Solid light switch. Works and feels well.

Anything else noteworthy? I have found memories of going to Beaver Lumber with my Dad when I was a kid :)
