  • 8 Named Beams thumbnail

LEGO 1224 8 Named Beams is a vintage System i Leg set from 1955 valued at $2 for new and sealed sets, up 0% from an original retail price of $2.00. Used copies are valued between $2 and $2 depending on condition.

LEGO 1224-2 8 Named Beams is a System i Leg Supplemental set released in 1955. The Danish version contained 8 pieces, while versions sold in Norway and Sweden contained 10 pieces, and the set was only released in those three Scandinavian countries. It consists of early white printed or decorated beams used as shop and street signs, with examples including TAXA, Teater, TOBAK, AUTO, HOTEL, KIOSK, Banegård, and Slagter. The known regional variations include differences in part count as well as differences in the printed brick selection and colors. Based on current trends, this set could be valued near $2 within the next year.
8 Named Beams is an exceptionally rare set. Set 1224-2 has not been seen for sale online or in retail stores in new or well-preserved condition for many years. Boxes that remain intact are regarded as museum-grade collectibles, representing the earliest era of LEGO. Its true market value is likely higher than any estimate we can confidently provide.
There are currently no new/sealed listings available for 8 Named Beams at this time.

About System i Leg Supplemental

Starting in the 1950s LEGO began individual parts sales, a practice that began with the Ferguson Tracktor in 1951. LEGO would supply dealers with wooden parts boxes and refill packs. These individual part sales would continue, at least in some markets, into the late 1950’s.

Supplemental consists of 68 sets that ran from 1955 to 1959. As of today, 214-4 Windows and Doors Retailer Pack is the most valuable Supplemental set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $805.
