Hi, all,

I'm trying to figure out which was my first
Lego set.  I've dug around the LUGNET set
guide, but I'm stumped.

It was circa 1972, and the set had 6 blue
10x20 baseplates, and bricks in red, white,
blue, and clear.  It had a bunch of 2x8 white
plates, and a few open (no-glass) white doors
and windows.  Part count was around 660.  The
plastic seems to be early ABS, but I'm not
certain.

Ring any bells?  Many thanks for any help...

-TimThis is a great question. Put on your thinking caps people! What sets had blue bases? By 1973 there are a lot of green ones!

I think I had the same stuff: a lot of white 2x8s from then, blue bases, and the
other parts you mention. However, mine came from a garage sale about 1974 (and
included a lot of glued-up red CA 2x4 bricks.)
