Before you feast your eyes. I'd like to know the answer to these
questions:
1. How old is it?
2. Is it one set, or an amalgamation of sets?
3. Would it have come with more documentation than I have?
4. Is the text Danish?

OK. Here it is:

Before you ask:
I found it in a charity shop (the closed box was in the window) in the
shadow of Edinburgh Castle. To see edinburgh castle, go to:

Before you ask (II)
I gave a donation of UKP50 (~$80) to get it. I thought that was pretty

Hi Scott

check this out, the "matchbox" style cars are there too. Hard to see what is
in it though, loooks as though you have a lot of extra pieces from the same

I have been trying to track down information on a 20-30yr old timber boxed set
that I have, Gary Istok suggested that this may be it (it wasnt)

But he tells me that it this set is circa 67-68!!!!!
Brilliant find!!!!! Amazing condition!
