VERY RARE VARIANT HARDLY EVER SEEN SEEN WITH THE PINK CARDBOARD INNER STOCK. Pink inner cardboard stock, what? It must be a fake. The answer is a resounding NO!!! Much like cash registers the huge rolls of cardboard used to construct these jackets were pink at the end to indicate the coming end of the roll. It is very rare to find one of these constructed with the end of the roll pink inner cardboard (see pictures). The last one I personally saw like this sold in 2008.
