   Either 6061 or 6062 has a blooper in the instructions.  I remember having
a copy with the error, another copy with the error that included a white
sheet showing the correction, and yet another copy with no error.  When I
dig it up, I will let you know if they all have the same number/printing
company info.  Also, 493 had a variation, as did a few other Space sets, but
not really an error, although its an interesting variation to collectors, to
be sure.
