Box Styles

Over the years the style of the boxes used by Jouef for their rolling stock changed several times but during the successful years they were red and black.

Here are some examples of the box styles

The very early boxes were plain with picture of the contents
Later they were orange
The four wheeled wagons were available in boxes of two .............
....... or four...........
..............and the bogie wagons in boxes of two
The boxes carried pictures of the various models available
The familiar red and black box was a cardboard lid to a polystyrene base
The red and blue box had a polystyrene insert base which slid out
The later blue box had a cardboard insert which could be adjusted to suit the model

More will be added when time permits
