After the buy out, the old managers of MCCC thought they could pull a fast one on R\u0026amp;E. They formed a new company called \"Metallic Art Works\" and promptly produced this knob, No.1 thinking that they could sell the rights to their old knobs and just start again with new patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tR\u0026amp;E did not agree. They filed suit and in a judgement, all knobs were recalled and dies destroyed. This is, as far as we know, the only knob they ever made. We numbered our reproduction 001 in honor of its being killed off, and as it was their first, and only, stock number.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tCast using the Lost Wax method in silicon bronze, lacquered to preserve the fine color.
