Hi All,
Last week I bought another classic Faller kit that I like to show in our Faller-users.net Collector's Corner. BigGrin

It is modern bank B-928 that was in the Faller program from 1966 to 1976.
B-928 is a kit from the series: "Stadsbausatze H0" and was on the cover of the "Neuheiten 1966" brochure (New Items 1966).
The modern bank was still displayed in the 1976/77 catalog, but the model disappeared from the 1977/78 catalog and price list.

The 1:1 prototype of B-928 can be found in the Bergstrasse in Weinheim-Germany.
Forum member "Fallerfreak" has visited and photographed the Weinheim prototype, which can be seen here in Post#13: L I N K

The inspection sheet of my B-928 kit is stamped with date: April 1, 1966 (66 04 01)....so the kit is 1 month older than I.
Now some pictures...

Ah, now I understand your Faller hunting scheme: Production date < your birth date !
