Ah yes, the minifig head color question rears its "ugly head" again. :-)
Set # 215 (Big Head Red Indians) from 1977 has 1 old style (no hole in top)
minifig head without printing. (This was the papoose head.)
Set # 277 (Big Head Fireplace Set) also from 1977 has 5 red old style minifig
heads and 4 black old style minifig heads, all without printing. 4 of the read
ones are used as the feet to the fireplace wood holder, one red one is used as a
vase on top of the fireplace. The 4 black ones are used as the base to the
fireplace. This is a Homemaker set.
I recently won 4 of these old red minifig heads on German EBAY. They were part of
a Fireplace set. They cost me $7.
I also recently won 13 regular clear old style minifig heads (they came from the
old Homemaker sets - used as the lower part of a clear coffee pot) on USA EBAY.
They cost me $20.
