Presentation Sets 1959
The "Presentation Sets" offered in 1959 were Lesney's first ever Giftsets. These "PS"-sets were only sold in 1959, in 1960 the design was changed dramatically and the sets were renamed "Gift Sets". The ( unfortunaly made from rather flimsy cardboard ) Presentation Set boxes were designed as a oversized "MATCHBOX" box with an similar design as the standard boxes from that period. The top lid was made foldable and could be used to create a small display to "present" the models. Unfortunaly this could only be done a few times before the boxes started to came apart and so most of these sets which are survived to today are damaged and having loose or missing top lids. Boxes in very good condition are rare and command very high prices.
