More ads. One talks about model makers in Detriot.

Pictures and scans of a 25 x 50 baseplate.
This part is only seen as part of the 248 set 'Factory with Conveyor Belt'
It is possible that this piece was cut from a 50 x 50 baseplate, I just can't tell.

Pictures comparing two different plastic roll-up mats.
The smaller one is 23 1/2 x 31 1/4 inches (60 x 80 cm)
The larger one is 28 3/8 x 47 1/4 inches (72 x 120 cm)

Lego Sortiment 1971 catalog

223-4 Accessory box
This accessory box is interesting. The inner box has 'MOSAIK' on it, as well has building examples, and the notation 223-1222. I assume this refering to the old style 4-digit numbering.

502 Red Suitcase
This is Samsonite form number H-2392. This phamplet describes the contents of the 502 Suitcase set.

521-1 Accessory box
This accessory box is interesting. All the other 518-521 boxes I have are an 8x11 stud plastic box with a grey plate as the bottom and with a paper sleeve around the plastic box. This new one is all paper. It even has a KLIKLOK trademark on it.

The logo is in red, this is the first/only time I have seen a Lego logo in red, usually it is white.

1308 Firestation box scans
I just love these 'painted' scenes on these boxes.

1309 Church box scans

Form B-111-ty
This one has a stamp/printed logo from the KaDeMe department store, was this printed special for KaDeMe, or is it a very good stamping job.

Form B-103

Form B-105

B-118 Interesting idea phamplet

'Flag' brochure
Talks about Lego in 10 different languages.

'VW' brochure
I think it talks about 1:80 scale cars, do they really mean 1:87.
I would love to get a translation.

Set 395 from the 1964 New York World's Fair
The pictures are from the auction I won to get this item.

28 page building ideas book
This isn't dated, or contain, any identifying information. I think it is older then the 'idea' books because of the drawings rather then pictures.
I would love to get a translation.

Another building ideas phamplet
This one has 'murstens' not 'mursten', This is the first time I have seen 'mursten' plural.
