  View original topic: GOLDE Ragtop Handle Variations

I was wondering what the differences in variations of the original GOLDE handles were for Beetle Ragtops /Sunroof up to 63
I know that 63 was a different handle that folded and I know that some of the early 50's Split's had a groove down the middle but what about the variations in the actual GOLDE logo itself.

I have 3 different GOLDE handles. They are all the same physical handle but the GOLDE logos vary in size and shape. Can anyone help out?
Thanks

I was told the rag top clip I bought was a 63 but it has a handle like the one on the bottom. The Golde type is bold. What year is that 3rd handle down?

The 63 Was different from all of these.
It actually folded down.
I am including a photo of the 63 only handle.

I have a '62 rag top and my handle is a '63. Could it have been a mid-year change in '62?
