What should TLG do with all those early 1980s unusual Minitalia (Italian
pseudo-LEGO) window and door molds and non-ABS plastic that they had leftover
once LEGO sales were allowed back into Italy (after a 1970-73 hiatus)???

....add Minitalia windows (1x6x3 Panorama with 13 panes, 1x4x3 with 12 panes)
and 1x4x5 doors with 9 LIGHTS!!!  ..... all in black to a Japanese 1902 set!

Not found in any online database (but in my DVD/download).

The 1980 Japanese catalog showing the basic sets produced that year shows the
very unusual (and very rare) 1902 set (from my DVD/download chapter on LEGO
