Unconfirmed Stores

Two stores had some sort of Klunk part discovered at their location. Springfield with Klunk valves, and Davenport with a Klunk arm. This confirms Klunk was present at their store at some point, but it is unknown which event(s) he was used in. Davenport does mention potentially receiving a Klunk for 1983 however.https://www.newspapers.com/image/665684553/?clipping_id=55395460&fcfToken=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJmcmVlLXZpZXctaWQiOjY2NTY4NDU1MywiaWF0IjoxNjk2OTcwNDk0LCJleHAiOjE2OTcwNTY4OTR9.sClG1OZrf2KnRIxRDXP7BAdtVpv1p4YKdgIgIRQHA4Q

• Springfield, OH (2345 Valley Loop Rd)⁽⁶⁾
• Davenport, IA (903 E Kimberly Rd)⁽⁷⁾⁽⁰⁾

The Farmington Hills, MI (29955 Orchard Lake Rd) store also could have had Klunk either for this event or The Amazing Uncle Klunk Traveling Show before its closing, due to Chicago, IL (5030 S Kedzie Ave) having a Klunk. Farmington transferred all their animatronics to Kedzie for them to open with in November of 1984, meaning a Klunk could have potentially been one of them.
