(...) Hmm, I seem to have ordered a bag of white classic 1x2x2 windows from S@H a year or so ago...

(...) They're the new ones, not the old ones. They don't have a projecting lip that juts out in front at the bottom, as did the entire old family except the 1x6x3 .

(...) [snip] (...) Hi Lar, just lost a '+' for today... The none-compatible classic windows have been stopped in 1972 (at least for Europe - no idea about samsonite windows).
