  rarest printed parts?
 
What are the rarest printed parts? I own both of the printed 1 x 6 x 5 astronaut bricks from classic space (and some other printed classic space bits) but I have the feeling there are rarer printed bits out there. (20 years ago, 18-Dec-04, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: rarest printed parts?
 
(...) There are several named beams that would qualify as rare. Here's some of them: (URL) (warning big page) (URL) (warning big page) Most of those are 1960's or before. Some of the rarer ones I've seen are the green prints, the Swedish/Danish VW (...) (20 years ago, 20-Dec-04, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: rarest printed parts?
 
(...) Great pics of the named bricks Clark! The highest price I have ever seen for a named beam is $35 for an "AD 1762" from the #309 Church set. The #309/#1309 sets from 1957-63 had 3 different names "1762", "AD 1762" and "ANNO 1762", and are all (...) (20 years ago, 20-Dec-04, to lugnet.general)

One rare part can be found here: (URL) have only heard about this single item. I beleieve the church 309/1309 is somehow common, I have got it offered a few times (the set). (<- I collect chucrhes!) S "Gary Istok" <istokg@earthlink.net> wrote in (...) (20 years ago, 8-Jan-05, to lugnet.general)

(...) S, It may not be super rare in Europe, but the 309/1309 Church is very rare in USA/Canada, where it was never sold. If you come across any more, please let me know!! :-) Also, thanks for showing the 2x10 beam from Bremen Germany. Promotional (...) (20 years ago, 8-Jan-05, to lugnet.general)

(...) Hi, I just got a mixed lot with a green "købmand" brick like the one in Clarks picture: (URL) has no "lego" print on the studs, but I can't spot any print inside the brick either; was there a time where Lego made bricks without imprint at all?

(...) I think it is B&W Diesel Engine maker, (at least, that's my english guess...I might be wrong). How about the UNICEF sides from Canada? I know they are fairly common compared with promo only stuff (at about 6K of them printed), but outside of (...) (20 years ago, 1-Mar-05, to lugnet.general)

(...) Arne, The 1x6 and 1x8 bricks from 1955-56 (the first years for printed bricks) both had 3 "sections" underneath (although starting in 1957 the 1x8 bricks had 4 sections underneath). On my bricks (with no "LEGO" on the studs) the middle section (...) (20 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: rarest printed parts?
 
(...) Up until now we have been talking about the rarest Lego printed part as being a brick or panel or slope. Eric Strand brought this one to my attention. At over $731.00 this may not be the rarest printed part, but it sure is the most expensive I (...) (20 years ago, 6-Mar-05, to lugnet.general)
