Thanks Allan,
I know I have been promising the Lego CD for a while now, but it keeps getting
bigger. It will exceed 700 pages, and that's only 1949-80. Volume 2
(1980-2005) will be bigger, but that will have to wait until Volume 1 is
finished and published. I do have about 20% of volume 2 done already (from when
Volume 1 was originally going be 1957-94).
So many sets!.... so many parts!.... and with 1949-65 Lego.... so many
variations!
