Hi!
Was the first extreme slope (2*2*3) the blue one in set 775?

Is the history of Lego pieces written down somewhere?
It would be a really interesting reading for a true Lego-fan. Maybe this
could be a fun future project for the community?

HI Joakim,

There is no complete history of LEGO, but I have (with Todd Lehman's kind
permission) started a "HISTORY OF LEGO" series that you can access from the
bottom of the LUGNET.GENERAL menu screen under "Links & Resources".

Although Steep Slopes have not yet been discussed, there is a lengthy
discussion about the regular sloped bricks from 1958-72.  Also there are other
items discussed there as well such as plates, Cellulose Acetate, classic
windows/doors, and Samsonite LEGO.  The classic doors document will be redone
(since the part 1 and 2 have been aged off of www.deja.com) in the very near
future.

Hope this helps,
Gary Istok
