WTB: Sub pillow

When I bought my 1992 N serial TT Sub, it was complete with everything except the original sales receipt. Both boxes, tags, anchor, booklets, the works. Problem is that the original green pillow has deteriorated. Looks like it was originally coated with some kind of green vinyl or paint, but the coating has shed off. Now it's a cloth pillow, with bits of green stuff all through the box. Would like to find a replacement in good condition.

I think you may have trouble finding one I had the exact same problem. It just started to disintegrate to the point I chucked it in the trash! But, good luck!

I'll see if I can find one for you no charge at my AD. They may have one lying around in the back.

I was able to remove the rest of the coating from mine so as to keep the set complete, but I'd sure like to find an original one in decent shape.
