Recently, Kevin added scans for a hithertofore unknown set (as far as

Year of Release:  (C)1978 LEGO System A/S
Piece Count:  Well, the set don't have one, I could count up the pieces

this set was discussed on RTL in the past.

Yes, last November-ish.  The piece count was never discussed or
disclosed.

I took the 1978 from that discussion, hand-counted to get the current
element-count guess; and I even guessed that they were your scans on
Kevin's site, after reading that thread.

Was "Main Street" the name on the box?
