Leo, that's a Skill Level hangtag, and it's the only one that was ever produced in blue, to the best of my knowledge. Someone (I don't recall who, I think it might have been Lurker) suggested that the 'double oval' hangtag introduced in the early seventies and commonly seen in yellow (and less frequently in red) was also produced in blue. If so, it must be very rare. I have never seen one.

You are correct, Sir. Sorry about the mixup.

Default What's this?

Hi,i was just reading about tags,and I picked this up at the LHS on Wednesday. A great find,but what year and rarity would this be? Does the "Distributed in Canada..." stuff appear on all the tags? Now I have to decide to save or build...Thanks.
