My 1956 proof set envelope looks the same as the envelopes used from the early 60s. I was on ebay and noticed the back of the '56 envelope looked different than mine. I'm just wondering if my envelope is a fake. Below is a pic of an unopened '56 from ebay. Thank you, josh1999

I believe each set came in two envelopes: the outer one for mailing and the inner one for storage.
It's been so long since I sold mine off that its exact look is fuzzy in my mind.

I think they came with top AND side flap opening. Here's the link to a recent thread.

edit: Where did you see the one with a $39 bid? I need one.

On ebay, search "unopened 1956 proof set". Look for the one listed at $39.00 + $3.00 shipping. Currently there are 15 bids.
