I looked at this when it first popped up. I think you just beat me to it as i was considering it to go with my Reedy Schumacher motors. I am guessing Mike Reedy wound some arms/built complete motors for Bolink in the same way as he did for Schumacher. Kind of like badge engineering.

I would be interested to see the armature and what I presume will be threaded wraps at the comm end. I am imagine that is quite an early Yokomo motor as i have seen these exact same 'R' labels on Igarashi cans also. Let me know when you get bored of it 8)
