| All the baseplates from the 70's, which I have from original sets, have different
tubes (do you call them tubes?) compared with newer baseplates. I do not know
when this chance took place, but is it worth to add a note for these baseplates
as they come in different variations?
It would be a lot of work making pictures aspecially with all the baseplates
with white dots and I certainly do not have them all.
On the attached picture is a example from set 648-1. On the right the original
one from the 70's and on the left a newer one.

It's true though we have similar looking undersides like this with sharp
edges around the hole and more curved ones.
I have the suspision they cut smaller baseplates from bigger ones. at least I
have seen plenty of edges that look cut. But this might be a custom job from
the people we bought it from.

They are cut of a larger in factory, cut to the size that was needed.
That is why older baseplates may have the whiter looking stressmarks.
I always mention this in my description so buyers know what they buy.

I would say underside indentions.

|
I would say it wouldn't hurt anything.

|
I would agree.
