* Add 10 Part 3069a Yellow Tile 1 x 2 without Groove (Alternate) (match ID 1)
Comments from Submitter:
Used set I purchased intact, probably an early production before they switched to tiles with groove.
Used sets are unfortunately not a valid source for variants as the bricks may
have been mixed with bricks from other sets. Part 3069a in Yellow currently does
not occur in any sets on BrickLink after 1969 (and only seldomly in other colors
after 1977), and 3069 in Yellow occurs in sets as early as 1975. So I find it
highly unlikely that this set from 1979 was ever produced with 3069a. We would
need solid proof from a sealed set.

I therefore have to reject your request.

Hi Jan
It is possible...
The American factories had different molds than the European ones.
Also use up all the stock.
I follow your point of view, as long as no solid proof. Otherwise you have to
approve everything.
