The Gorizont shelf looks a little bit more complete [:)] A few more small logo variations are still missing though..

The first original Horizont I see with a black cylinder ! -And a circle in the bottom !! Author certificate was seen in other units.
Could be a transitional model.

I've seen another one once before with black cylinder as well for sale on eBay. These are rare but do come up. That one was regular Gorizont.

Cheers,
