My once in a lifetime find was in 3 small toystores (5 miles apart) in northern
Bavaria Germany in 1979... shall I say (all MINT) - 2500 windows & doors (#214
1-10) LEGO dealer boxes, (3) 1962 wooden box sets (#712, #712, #711) , a Building
Idea Book #1 (#238), a hardcover book DER LEGO MOTOR (#242), (30) 1960's service
packs, (10) sets of blue train track (#151, #152), (10) old LEGO Catalogs, (2) old
Wild West Scene (#365), (2) Harbor Scene (#364), (3) Central Train Stations (#149),
(3) Shell Refineries (#148) and (2) Thatcher Perkins Locomotive model kits (#396),
all for under $300. What a grand way to come out of the dark ages...... the story
people love to hate...

| I haven't been reading the posts on lugnet.general much lately but just noticed yours and thought I'd brighten your day. What you describe is possible, I know, as I found it about twelve months ago and have been madly buying up as much as I can (...) (27 years ago, 16-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)
