Special Notes: Brittle cellophane wrapping. Molded by Southern California Plastic Company (SCP). The tightly clinging wrapper seems to have minimized outgassing from the "Tuffy" plastic causing less distortion of the disc's shape over time. (See the FS4 for an example of the original mold shape.) Only packaged FS1 known to date.
