Boxing clever - Mamod packaging and designBoxes for Mamod products always add that little extra to a models completness. Over the years Mamod used a vast assortment of cardboard boxes ranging from simple one and two colour work through to the full colour printing (introduced in c1957/8). Over the years mamod has won awards fro its packaging (white full colour boxes of the early 1970s), it may only protect the model in transit, but keeping the box addes to the value and historical prevenance of the model - so hang on to your cardboard.
