Has anyone ever seen packaging like this before?
I've just got this 'set', but I don't think the road signs would have come in it originally as they barely fit.

The box has the word 'Playmobil' on all 4 sides, and is plain orange on either end.
Could it be packaging from early DS? Or perhaps from within a set, for example when the track in train sets comes seperately boxed inside.

It's funny to see an orange box, but wasn't this the colour originally associated with construction theme?
Could be very early DS packaging. Interesting item! :)

The orange box is a nice find but, the road signs bring back a lot of memories to my mind! They're from the first set I ever had, and came with only one clicky cop with a white helmet. There were traffic lights too, I think, though it may have been in another set...
Thanks for posting these Damo!
