You weren't into LEGO in the 1960's or early 1970's were you? (Were you even
alive then!) The parts pack #224 had them (there were packs in white, red,
blue, yellow, black and clear). There were 20 in a box in the European version,
33 in the USA/Canada Samsonite version. But this was from 1957-65, with much of
it made from Cellulose Acetate. Later there was a parts pack that had a
combination of macaroni and 1x1 round bricks in the same pack with 2 colors
(red/white, blue/yellow, black/gray). I have to check my late 60's early 70's
catalogs for the parts pack number, but it was in the 9xx range. This is
probably the pack that Mike Walsh found in Spain.

| Hi all, Today I was chatting with some folks, and I mentioned that I have 8 yellow macaroni bricks. I don't remember where I got them. It was suggested that I might have received a Dacta set, but all my LEGO was store-bought. Any ideas? ~Mark (...) (24 years ago, 8-Dec-00, to lugnet.general)
