Yes a picture is essential, but looking on Nick's guide for this model it may be one of the models described that falls into possible 'Pre-Pro' status, so it will be interesting to see this example.

I have been unable to find out anything more regarding either this label variation or the Douglas company (with a view to identifying the livery and logo colours).
I think there is a good chance that these are either code 1 or code 2 promotionals (especially since they occur both as mint and playworn examples), but that remains pure speculation (meaning they could equally well be code 3 models).
