Will the value of my new set, #9365 DACTA Community Vehicles (II or so), be diminished if I remove the stupid 5.25"x1.875" (13.3cm x 4.76cm) warning label ('choking hazard. small parts. not for children under 3 years' - well, duh) which Enfield, in (...)

  Re: Fence colours
 
Hi Simon, Yes, to all of your questions, tall fences also came/come in white, yellow, blue, black and of course red. I think the short fences also come in these colors as well. There are also red 1x4 gates from the 70's that have basically 1x2 high (...) (26 years ago, 23-Feb-99, to lugnet.general)

  Re: Fence colours
 
Ah yes! The proverbial lattice fence pieces. Others have already described the 2 different styles. Actually there are 5 different Lattice styles (that I'm aware of) since they first came onto the scene circa 1968. For the 1x4 and 2x4 sizes Joshua (...) (26 years ago, 23-Feb-99, to lugnet.general)
