G type blisterpacks
Re: G type blisterpacks
Mick your right it really is amazing the different artists interpretations of these cars. I espescially love the USA blister and the artist drawing of the Lotus, just look at the short wheel track and the massive overhang of the wheel arches!! Brilliant!
I also note that the roller has missed the hot foiling on the rear wheel hub, nice again!

Re: G type blisterpacks
I am still not sure what a "Muira" is supposed to be at all ("Muira Puama" is apparently some kind of Brazilian tree), but these cards depict a Lamborghini Marzal...SMS88 wrote:compare the compeletely different artists drawings of the Muira and Europa
Re: G type blisterpacks
Mick my eye sight is definately not what it was when i was younger. I hadn't realised that the wheel was back to front. At a glance it looked like it had missed the hot foil treatment. Certainly an unusual factory error!!SMS88 wrote:Its actually a wheel fitted inside out! First time I have seen one this way round other than online.......
