Zoo with Baseboard is an extremely old and very rare LEGO set. We have not seen set 258-1 currently for sale online or in the hundreds of retail stores in good/new condition in over 736 days. Because of the rarity of this hard to find set the current estimated value of $597.75 might actually be much lower than the true value, assuming this set can be found for sale.Because Zoo with Baseboard is a very old set from 1976, finding it in a sealed and good condition might be difficult thus making the true value even that much higher.

“The zoo has about 16 animals: 2 penguins, 2 monkeys, mother and baby elephant, a pelican, a seal, a giraffe, a lion (behind fence), a kangaroo, an ox, a horse, a camel (could be a lama or dromedary too), a deer and a big blue bird (my guess it's an ostrich). Among the... More visitors there is 2 children (boy and girl) and an adult woman. The zoo personnel consists of 2 male guards in black uniform with cap (one driving a wheelbarrow) and a lady in a roofed outlet on wheels selling ice cream.”

About Building Set with People

Building Set with People ran from 1974 to 1980 with a majority of the sets released around 1977 and was a subtheme of the Homemaker brand designed to appeal primarily to girls. Most of the sets contained Homemaker Figures, also known as Maxi-Figs or Maxifigures, and the sets were about building items such as vehicles and room settings like a hospital, school classroom, a beauty salon or nursery for the figures and centered on domestic and suburban life-based settings. Building Set with People sets are typically vintage LEGO and such are very hard to come by in new and sealed packages.
