I seem to recall hearing about this in the past, a search of LUGNET might turn
something up. You might try that.
I seem to recall this being from the "Samsonite era". Please note, it was really
hard (impossible??) to tell that Samsonite had anything to do with these items.
They carried LEGO badging and the parts had LEGO on the studs and so forth.
So your colleague's statements and Paul's statements are not inconsistent.
Hope that helps.
