Well, the grouping that occured up until now is very obvious. It seems
unlikely to me that this would have happenend when the sets where "all
jumbled up together". It seems also highly unlikely that a "jumbled up"
pattern is going to emerge suddendly from this moment on.
Since the number is not printed on the outside, I believe that Brad Justus
had to grab the first fife sets from the production line, just because there
is now way of telling for sure what numbers are inside the sealed box
afterwards. Maybe set A2002 fell down during storage/transportation and
wasn't put back at the same place, but outside its own number group instead.
With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen.
