| Hello,
Does someone have knowledge from these 375-2 box variants? I tried to find more
information, but without success. The other box with opening lid and plastic
tray is definitely from European market as it is having old local distributor
marketing sticker(Finland). Other box says Samsonite from Canada. Was the Samsonite
version only sold in Canada? Is there any ideas when and how long this Samsonite
box was on production?

The Samsonite of Canada produced its own boxes and Lego parts, did packaging,
everything until they closed the production in 1988. So this is the only version
of box sold uniquely for the market of Canada.
Is there any ideas when and how long this Samsonite
For as many years as this set was sold. If you google, you find more about these.

Hey,
It is very interesting to see the box variants side by side. Thank you for sharing
them! I've been wondering where those grey and blue plastic trays for parts
came from but now I have answer.
