Flowers to the front!

Post by TOYRFIC »

I got this on eBay a couple months ago. First one I have seen which had the flower on stripe label applied with both sides flower to the front.
This SF57 Eccles Trailer Caravan is usually found in Two Pack TP - 4 Holiday Sets.

Well spotted, as you say the flower is always at the rear of the caravan so these were applied the wrong way round, nice find.

Hey Jason! How’s everything in the “land of the sun” ? Love the reverse labels!
Speaking of flowers, here’s a 31b I acquired recently with the harder to find flower label rather than the regular “eyes”.
My best to April!

Hi Bill, Everything is good. Hope all is well for you guys in "Coolorado!"

That is a nice flowered Volks-Dragon! One more I need to track down.

See you in Albuquerque???

Take care,
Jason.
