No idea what year its from, I scanned the entire flyer and uploaded it here:

There is some very interesting reading on it, but no year is on it. But it
does say "Lego now has gears and motors" so that may date it - I am no
history expert for this stuff.


I dunno about the year, but check out that SNOT technique on the two smaller

It's very rare that you see that building style in Lego sets.  Coolness.
