ANIMAL FAMILY
K96 No. 117 – Recast of the cat and kitten. Although the cat has the K number, it’s slightly different (its ears and paws are unpainted) and the paper is a rather poor copy of the original.

BOAT (1 OF 2)
K92 No. 146 – Boat with yellow extendable hull and red cabin. The toy and paper both have the K number.
