Hi I have just purchased this postman (already he is more reliable than our real postman!)
On closer inspection I have noticed others on EBAY that have the harrop gold text on the tube he is holding. Can any one tell me if there are two versions because my one seems to be holding a tube with the older style cream label and no writing on it.
Hoping somebody can help me with this one.:confused:

The one with the cream label is the 1st ed 1993 - 1994 this resembles the old country companion tube and the gold label one is 2nd ed 1995 - 1997 which resembles the newer Harrop tubes. This should solve your problem

:eek: There are numerous dogs from Robert Harrop with different coloured shirt's, face's, trousers, belts/braces, 1st/2nd editions, long hair/short hair, with tongue in/out, base small/big etc etc etc that unless you are an expert (lookout for Boston 4000 on e/bay) it really is a bit of a mine field out there! Just when you think you might have cracked it you realise your not even close! Still for me thats part of the fun of collecting these pieces. Every now and then you come across one that you did not even know existed. Got to be said frustration levels do increase on another discovery, but thats part of the fun of collecting. Is'nt it?:cool:
