Hey Bertus FLIKKEMA here from Neede – the Netherlands. This ride opened at the Queens Fair in HAARLEM-Zaanenlaan in April 1982. At that time we operated/owned a SKID and stood next to the TOPPER of Gerrit TEGELAAR. It can happen that I could trace some pictures from the old days so the best is that Daniel sends me a message and I will send it at the moment I have found these.
Here below is a link to the archive of fairground pictures of the TILBURG FAIR in the Netherlands: http://www.kermistilburg.nl/archief/1982
Pictures 29 + 31 + 48 + 49 + 50 + 51 + 52 give an impression of THE TOPPER when it was operated by Gerrit TEGELAAR.
Manufactured in 1982 and operated by Gerrit Tegelaar (NL), Isje Kroon (NL), Hank (NL), Portush A.P (Ireland), Better Amusements (Aus). Previously themed ‘De Topper’, ‘Swing’, ‘Didco Swing’, ‘Sidewinder’.
