Yes Steve, there are 4 of these as Jono rightly said. They are not very easy
to find in my experience. Although I have all of the 'proper' Bricks 'n
Pieces mags, I only have 3 of these 4 'unofficial' ones. And 2 of those are
repro, not originals. I forget which number I don't have, but if anyone
reading has any, I'll know by looking if I recognise it or not, and would
appreciate a photocopy of it!
David Lyall retired as LEGO UK's official designer in 1983. It would be
quite interesting to know if he is still with us (I hope so). I expect Jono
would agree.
Regards,
Phil in Yorkshire.

| Thanks for the info Phil. I don't know whether or not to sell it on yet. Although I'm fond of my 70's Lego, I'm not exactly a collector, so it would probably be far more appreciated by someone else. Thanks again, and have a merry one :) Steve. "Phil (...)
