Hi there,
As previously mentioned, trying to help out where I can, I've uploaded a few photos for the Matchbox Convoy CarryCase as I found my mine. The existing entry doesn't appear to be the same as mine so I've taken a photo of the inside trays to verify that there are differences.
I've also created a Title entry for Matchbox Car-Ferry. There didn't seem to be any subject titles for Gift-Sets so I've created a new entry, Admins, please feel free to edit accordingly if the information I've provided needs to be elsewhere.
I've found very little information as to when the Car-Ferry was produced from and to. Looking back at my catalogues, it appears in the 1972 catalogue as G-7 however, my set has 1971 printed on the box.
The last catalogue that has it listed is the 1980/81 and the set was renumbered G-17
I do know that there are several colour variations and names;
Heron - Blue base / White cabin - these tend to be early versions and Olympia - Red base / White cabin, which appear to be later versions
Obviously, with such a run, over time, there were a multitude of models that came with it, later sets came with VW Golf
This set was also available Commando Task Force G-9
Anyway, that's enough rambling for me
