What is your source for this? Are you looking at a set image, or an inventory
printed on the side of the box?

What is your source for this? Are you looking at a set image, or an inventory
printed on the side of the box?

I just ran across these images from 1989 and 1991 catalogs (respectively). It
reminds me of some of the creator sets in the mid-2000's where the "main
model" was different depending on which country you bought the set in.

So at first this set was a country house with the mailbox as an add-on to make
a post office. 2 years later it is a post office with the add-on window to make
a regular house (see the BL Original Box image, with the window leaning up against
the wall).

We also have a MISB source from Peeron with the window included, so I'm inclined
to believe it was always part of the set.
