Comments from Submitter:
I was confirmed by a first hand owner of the 7-studs roadplates that these indeed were recieved in this set back in 1997.
Although it is a very rare variation that have been sold as this two-roadplates set, this may simply be a production error of green baseplates, or a deliberate production choice of using 2358 mold to whatever reason print this pattern on them.

I tried few times to find out with what set
[p=80547pb02]
came. Mystery resolved.
I also wondered that, and thanks to a local pick-up by a buyer, he brought some
old stuff that would be of interest of me. When I saw these plates, I did not
release, because he had something even more interesting, when his mother bought
the straight plates, she also bought a 2-pack of curved roads...
...but one of the curved roadplates lacks the white printing! So I have a plate
with Light Gray printing, but no middle line. That's why I lean more about
bad ealy production process and defective machines, such as 30279 mold unavailable,
which would need to call back 2358 mold into service. Or it couls simply ba en
employeen confusing 8-studs plates with the old 7-studs kept in the warehouse...
I really wonder what caused these funny baseplates...
