“The LEGO Samsonite Town Plan Board, set 246, released in 1961, was part of the Town Plan theme. This set included a large baseplate designed to create a town layout. It featured roads, parking areas, and spaces for buildings and vehicles, offering a foundation for children to build and expand their LEGO towns. The set did not include LEGO bricks or accessories; it was intended to complement other sets in the Town Plan series, allowing for a more organized and realistic town setup.”
 

About Samsonite Town Plan

The LEGO Samsonite Town Plan theme includes sets produced during LEGO's partnership with Samsonite from the early 1960s to the early 1970s, specifically targeting the North American market. These sets were designed to create detailed urban layouts and included components like roads, buildings, and vehicles. Key sets in this theme include the Town Plan (Set 725) and the Town Plan Accessories (Set 218). These sets aimed to provide children with a comprehensive play experience, fostering creativity and understanding of urban planning. The Town Plan sets played a significant role in popularizing LEGO in North America during the Samsonite era.

Town Plan consists of 3 sets that ran from 1961 to 1969. As of today, 725-3 Town Plan is the most valuable Town Plan set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $3,081.
