Miniatures news, March 1971

Just before the Royal Mail ceased to be a British institution we received two Lesney miniatures. One of these, “MATCHBOX” No. 19, is an imaginary dragster, which can be ignored. The other, “MATCHBOX” No. 12, is a Setra coach, 3 in. long, the scale being 100:1, priced at 15p. The luxury seats inside the vehicle are reproduced and, at last, the number plates are correctly lettered.—W. B.
