Hi Manuel,
First a few things about the Samsonite sets. Many of the European sets from
the 1950's and 1960's had a parts list ("beipackzettel" in German). I have
never seen one of these in any Samsonite set. A question for you on your 725
Town Plan set. Do you have the earlier (1961-62) version with the boy on the
box with brown hair? Or do you have the later (1963-64) version with the boy
on the box who has very short blond hair? I have the later set (which I
purchased incomplete). If you have the earlier set, then that set is
identical to the European 810 Town Plan set. I know Mark Harrison posted the
contents to the 810 set (which originated from Phil Traviss in England). I
will Email you a copy of that original contents list.
The way I would go about it is to actually build the Town Plan. That should
give you a close guess as to the parts counts. There will probably be about
20 or 30 extra pieces. I have the 717 Junior Constructor set (1963-64
version), the other large set that Samsonite sold. Luckily that set was
complete, although opened. There were about 20 extra pieces. I will do a
parts inventory and will share the results.
There are actually 4 different Town Plan sets (two of which are probably
identical). They are:
1960-68 #810 Town Plan sold in Continental Europe and UK (until 1962) (boy
with brown hair).
1963-66 #810 Town Plan UK only version (boy on box with brown hair and
wearing a tie).
1961-63 #725 Town Plan sold in USA/Canada (same box and contents as 1960-68
European 810)
1963-64 #725 Town Plan sold in USA/Canada (boy on box with short blond hair).
The Town Plan boards to these sets were as follows:
#200 - 1960-68 Continental Europe/UK (1960-62) Board.
#200 - 1963-66 UK only board has different layout of the same town blocks.
#246 - 1961-62 USA/Canada board is identical to the Continental European
board.
#246 - 1963-64 USA/Canada board has updated front, but same layout as earlier
#246.

| Saddly I have to say that I have the later one. It is incomplete (is without cars, except a bug VW black, but I think this not belongs here, maybe a tree, a light). I built all the houses, I have a little difficult to built the esso service, because (...) (24 years ago, 24-May-00, to lugnet.general)
