GENERAL INFO

Only two variations of boxes for this model were ever made. The first, an E4R NEW MODEL, was released in February 1968. It was followed by an F2 box, with “ALP’ bottom lettering and “TM” and “PO” on the end flap closers.

RARITY
The F box is by far the rarest box for this model, and the second rarest F box of all. It is highly sought after.
