I've got this one down as a Paddle prototype from 1960 intended to replace the PD33 model but the brand didn't last long enough.

Solved: Re: PN #51 -- Paddle by Mitaka Fuji Industries, 1960
« Reply #19 on: February 25, 2010, 01:53:02 PM »
Yes, this is the Paddle made by Mitaka Fuji Industry - one of the members of the Fuji Heavy Industries group, which went on to produce Subaru cars.

FYI here's the 1959 Paddle PD33

Well done
