The other side of the sleeve is badly damaged but the vehicles look good.

A lovely looking set.
The themed Gift Packs were something Lesney did really well and are much prized, so well done on getting yours.
I got a battered Commercial set a while back with torn cover and tatty models.
DId a few repairs and slowly filling with better models.

Should be there Pete, might bump into each other. See if you can get to the coffee bar for 10.30 to meet some of the other motley crewpetethesweet wrote:Hi nice one Tim, shame about the box. Are you off to Sandown Saturday Pete.
