I did not know these existed until I saw this. Matchbox made several different carrying cases and it hard to keep track of all of them. As it has the 1913 Cadillac on the cover I am thinking it is from 1968-1969.
The inside has a thin layer of felt which adds a bit of dignity to the Model of Yesteryears. The Yesteryears are a larger scale than the usual models thus they need a separate carrying case. Similar in scale to the King Size but as those are mostly trucks they don't fit in this case. Unlike the other cases the front cover completely comes off. You can attach the cover so it is on the back and voila a display case. This actually going to save me some room so I can display more cars.
Just a note here. The models of the new cars they were making at that time are now as old as the Yesteryears were then. Hopefully that makes sense.
Super case for those excellent old time cars
It's cool that they made the custom case for the series with the display option.
Thank you very much Newfld.
