I got my 004 master builder and 002 motor in December 68, so they were out
by then.  I don't know if they were just released or if they had been
out a while.

Were the series 001-004 released at the same time? I have a Samsonite catalog
that came in a 021 Wheel set that listed gears as new (as in "Now Lego has
gears") and had the other sets listed (002, 003 and 004).

Thanks
