Clark,
I've gone through my stuff and found very little you don't already have....
They're in here: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=20398
The three coloured ones I think are 1978, so that would be too recent...
I'm not sure you can see the difference in the Police bricks. The two with
the bold print are actually different in that one has flat print, the other
seems sort of engraved (that's the top one in the picture).
The third are some old stickered bricks that I found.
If I find more I'll drop it in the same folder...

| Duq, Thanks for the additions. I've added them to my site. The coloured bricks make a nice comparision with the earlier clear painted bricks in the gallery, which came from a similar/earlier light brick set. I've also had several people ask me where (...)
