The fifth MICA European Convention was held on 30th August 1997 at the Mercure Hotel, Amsterdam, Holland.
|
The top side of the van pictures a Dutch maid holding a large yellow cheese with the words "5th EURO-MICA 1997" imprinted in red. The cab doors feature six European flags circled by the stars of the European Union motif, though five stars are hidden by the flag.
