Some sets come in moulded polystyrene blocks and can only have been made after 1950, which aligns with the items' general 1950s/1960s design. It is sometimes incorrectly claimed that "JGEHA" was a pointer towards Johann Georg Hauswaldt, the later producer of fine drinking chocolate and chocolate bars. Not only is there no proof of this, it is also highly improbable that someone would wait over 25 years after their peak to release these sets and omit their founding date of 1781. Setting that aside, the company was based in Magdeburg, which was in East Germany at the time, while these sets are from Bavaria, which was in West Germany at the time.
