EXIN CASTILLOS & WEST

Howdy folks! just trying to test uploading images............

This type of "MUD WAGON" stage was more common than the famous closed Concord Stagecoach. It would make an ideal prototype for an EXINWEST OVERLAND STAGECOACH as the sides are wide and allow easy access to insert seated ExinWest seated ...

I know this is a late post, but looking at the original box art for the EXINWEST Post Office set, it strikes me odd that the artist may not be the same one who did the other boxes, or there have been alterations to the image used on the final box--this set shows the seem lines of the construction ...

I am not sure where EXINWEST was sold in SPAIN or other countries, but here in the United States, EXINWEST & EXIN CASTLES were sold only in very expensive toy stores and import specialty stores.
