(...) Hi Gary, as you know there is a huge ammount of parts, which only appear in one set-number. But there is a regular part (and i think it's a "common brick"), which appears in only one unique Set: It is the red 1x2 tile with the four digit (...) (22 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)
