Special Notes: We believe that this is also a test disc made by Wham-O. Although we have no proof, we believe this was made after the None mold. Because the details seen on the disc stand out more clearly in 2A Reverse than in None Regulars. We also believe that the 2A Reverse mold was made quite soon after the None Mold, in any case before 1971 because it does not have the T.M. Script. The Australian licensee Tolstoy's Regular is also made with this mold.
Disc has 14 inner flight rings and 33 outer flight rings. There is no trademark ® after the word Frisbee. The disc does not read Wham-O in raised letters. The disc has a ring that is 2.1 cm from the center. The disc has the mold number 2A Reverse. The disc is not made with 2 molds, it is a separate mold. It has been guessed that 2A means the second mold for the Australian license holder. Bottom tooling reads: PLAY CATCH - INVENT GAMES, TO FLY, FLIP AWAY BACKHANDED, FLAT FLIP FLIES STRAIGHT, TILTED FLIP CURVES - EXPERIMENT!, WHAM-O MFG. CO.SAN GABRIEL CALIF., PAT. PEND. Special attention in the script: Special attention in the script: The letter G has a foot, which can only be found in discs made with 3 mold and None mold. There is no dot after the word San Gabriel, which is found on all other Wham-O Regulars except none and the 2A Reverse mold. The font size is smaller than other Wham-O Regulars. Letters can also be Bold.
