The grey 2x2 tiles, white and black figs w/pigtail hair, red arches possibly, black 4x8 plates, 1x4 headlight brick make me think 555 Hospital set. Though from the sounds of it you don't have a couple of the 1x4 I believe.. red arch bricks. The (...) (25 years ago, 5-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)

The baseplate should have some white dots on it for placement of the first parts, it's a green one, I don't remember size off hand, Though you can see the scan of my instructions up on Brickshelf. I believe it shows the baseplate with the dots. I (...) (25 years ago, 5-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)
