hm i once had 241 but it was destroyed in 1976. all i have now is this page of
it:
http://library.brickshelf.com/scans/0000/0241/0241-50.html
but i remember comparing them both and finding some relation but not the exact
layout. my guess as a child was that the little booklet i have online might
predate the big idea book by half a year or so. the other fragment i have online
(wich i always called the blue booklet) displays pictures from the idea book 240
my lego1.jpg is half of 240-1-35.htm and
my lego2.jpg is half of 240-1-38.htm
but the other pictures don't fit so there might have been another version.
since i studied the booklet with the discussed layout more thoroughly in an
attempt to date it i always sorted them thus:
1. the blue fragment first (maybe 1969),
2. then the complete booklet (p69 on my homepage) with the layout and
introducing some new sets such as the 720 and maybe a forerunner of the 723 with
grey roof. (most probably 1970)
3. the 241 idea book in it's two versions.

other interesting issues of my "p69" booklet, the one with the discussed layout,
are for example the houses with the grey baseplates in picture p69s04.jpg. the
other houses in the neighbourhood are sets, these too?
or have a look at how they rearranged some of the houses for each foto. you
always see the same side of some, even though the view might rotate at something
nearer to 90 than 180 degrees. . . or and this might interest you, ben, the
most; have a look at the wheels. there are some clear drawings of 12 spoked
train wheels. (another hint for preproduction fotos in an idea or promotion
book?)
