BAYKO in ITALY

I currently have two BAYKO documents from the Italian Market : -
 
1954 Leaflet Included with Sets
1954 Leaflet explaining BAYKO in Italian
1954 Leaflet showing BAYKO Set Contents in Italian
BAYKO Product Explanation
BAYKO Set Contents
The dating of 1954 actually comes from the English language manual included in the same set as this Leaflet, so it may well have covered a longer period.
The format is the same as that used for other export markets, with set contents on one side and a brief product explanation on the other.
By way of proof, I also own a very similar French language sheet...
205 mm x 131 mm = 8.1 x 5.2 inches

The above document is the standard UK catalogue of the same date, translated into Italian, with the pull-out price booklet in Italian lira and the address of the local importer.
151 mm x 106 mm = 5.95 x 4.2 inches
 
There is further evidence of BAYKO in the Italian market during the MECCANO era, in a multi-lingual document in the Liverpool Maritime Museum...
