Well... another new (old) unknown set to add to the next version of the
DVD/download (free to current owners)....
This previously unknown circa 1966 Department Store Exclusive Set #93.

Not found in any online database.... The origins are still a mystery, but this
USA Samsonite LEGO exclusive may have been either a Sears or FAO Schwarz (luxury
American toy store) exclusive set... probably sold at a very cheap price
(perhaps $1.00) to interest parents into introducing LEGO to their Children. As
was often the case with 1966-72 USA and Canada Samsonite LEGO basic sets... the
set number was also the set part count.
Cheers,
Gary Istok

| Here's another unknown set... this one from 1986, and produced for Japan... (URL) checked with the Billund Archives folks... they have no records of this set either... so they're contacting the Japanese sales subsidiary to ask why that is?? Another (...)
