GENERAL INFO

Like model 1A Road Roller in a classic illustration pattern that would be used for many years. The model is shown with a side view, dark background and small model numbers far from the model.

The A box, of course, has the “MOKO” in script lettering and the same box was used for the B1 variation, only replacing the script lettering  with “MOKO” in block letters. Size 1 was the only box size available for that model.

 

RARITY

It goes without saying that the type A box, like any box of this type, is rare and sought after. It is difficult to find any in good shape, as their fragile end flaps are often torn or missing. The B box is easier to find. With that said. The A box will likely cost about 25-30% than what you can expect to pay for a B one.
