I should know this but can't recall. Under the looking glass it looks kinda like (RUSDER). I think their was a company called Rustler but it does not look like it. Picture made 1982 in Odessa, Tx.
Norm Hamlett with the Hag Show. Thanks, J.R.

Definitely a Russler (sp?). But not the same as current Russler being made by Russ Hicks.

After looking closer and with better light it looks like it is spelled (RUSLER). J.R.

Yes a Rusler - more than likely built in Phoenix - one of the companies that Chuck Back who builds Desert Rose in Tucson now.

Still several around

Yes, it's an old Rus-ler. Compare it to the Rus-ler in the second picture below.
