The free standing board I've had for a while, but the flat example for attaching to the wall is a recent find. There was also a window sticker, an example of which is in the hands of another member here.

Yes, here it is - it looks to be a bit tatty, but it could still be used if the paper is taken off....

Picked up this display from a German friend and fellow collector at Sandown on Saturday. Got it on the wall today and popped a few models in it.

I think these were aimed at the European market, as that's where they seem to turn up mostly. I have another version on the way from the Netherlands next week which has 13 divisions rather than the 11.

They came in a "straw" box, so would date to early-mid '80's I guess.

There is a later 3rd version which has model labels on it, but this one is post 1987 so not suitable for my collection. I've only seen this one once, and it was on German E-Bay but I failed to save the pictures for reference. :oops:

Thank's Gary, thank's Bob.

Interesting to see them in a large 'Straw' type box as if they were aimed at the collector rather than the dealer, as most displays the dealers have come in mostly plain packaging with perhaps the od label showing address and reference numbers etc.

Would be nice to see the back of the box, presumibly showing the type of models that would be placed inside the display or even more display material to be had :D

The boxed one is on it's way (hopefully). If it doesn't arrive, I think Marcel has one and should be able to show a picture of the box rear. I know you like a picture of a nice rear Kev :shock:
