GENERAL INFO
The 15A appeared in 1955, first in a B1, size 1 box. The picture is blurry and shows a front view of the mode. Immediately after cam a B2 box, still in size 1, with a sharper picture. Numbers are lower and the background appears lighter. A second B2 box was released after, with a different view, showing the model from above, with yellow wheels and yellow back platform. A third B2 box, this time a size 2, is back with a front view but the mirrors, present in the first two variations, are no longer there.
The last variation is a B3, size 3 box using the second variation for the picture, which explains the use of the blue rectangle.
RARITY
None of the boxes for this model is particularly rare. However, the box with the view from above seems a little less common.
