Bicycle Ohio White straps

[davidelosbueiss]

Hi:

I'm from Spain so sorry for my English. I've a question about Bicycle Ohio decks. I've seen some of them, have a white strap in the plastic which covers the deck, while others have a transparent strap. I attach a photo where both of them can be seen. Does someona know why do some of them have it white? Is it because they are older?

Thanks!

From looking at my collection, the white strip was used in 1970s and early 1980s.  Check the bottom of your decks to see if there is a UPC bar code or not.  Bar codes started to be used around 1981.
