here is the notice I have showing it in blue. It was logic to me because of the
blue logo. It's weird that you have (or me) have a notice with a different
color.

There is a listing on Ebay: the same instructions but the seller put two white
bricks. (why didn't he follow the instructions he owns?!)

This can also be an error that TLG corrected in later prints of instructions.
This is very hard to verify.

I searched for some instructions on Ebay and it seems there are two different
instructions indeed. The one with the blue bricks is the same as the second instruction
image on Bricklink (thanks for noticing Stuart). This image also shows a separate
small page, because of an error in the Instruction: It misses the 2x2 Tile (and
2x3 plate instead of one of the 1x2 plates) where the bed of the truck rests
on.

So I'm thinking of considering this complete instruction as an error. Maybe
this replacement page shows white instead of blue bricks on the back, who knows.

I will add a note to the inventory about this and leave this request open for
a while. I want to check images, sheets and info on my old desktop and find the
sets and instructions I have myself. Maybe I have some more info on this I forgot
about.

Anyway, thank you for the change request. I like puzzles like this

I made one image of front and back of the Instruction with the blue error page
from Bricklink on top. The second image shows the 'white bricks' Instruction.

PS If there are still some more Vintage LEGO fans out there, who have more info,
feel free to help us out. I'm kind of missing these Vintage Collectors.

It looks like TLG started using tiles in sets in 1967 (release year of set 331).
Before that the tiles only came in supplemental boxes. Maybe they realized a
tile could be used for this purpose also, after the instruction was made. That
might explain that change in the intruction, it still doesn't explain the
blue bricks though.

I couldn't find any info about this error page in my archives. I have 5 instructions
of this set and all show white 1 x 1 bricks (including 2 Samsonite instructions).
I will leave it to the note I added for now. To add blue bricks as alternate
items we would need more evidence / info about the extra error page.

Strangely the instructions shown on BL also show blue in cab.
