Set Value (New/Sealed)

This represents the current new/sealed value of the set Governor Set since January 1968. Medium accuracy
LEGO 66 Governor Set was a 387 piece Samsonite set released in 1968. It was an FAO Schwarz exclusive set only available in the United States. It contained bricks, wheels, doors, slanted roof bricks, baseplates, windows, and other elements in red, blue, black, yellow, white and some transparent bricks.
Governor Set (set 66-1) is an extremely old and rare LEGO set. It has not been seen for sale online or in retail stores in good/new condition in over 2 years. Due to its rarity, the current estimated value of $439.16 may be much lower than its true value, assuming it can be found for sale. As this set was released in 1968, finding it sealed and in good condition is particularly challenging, likely driving its true value even higher.
There are currently no new/sealed listings available for Governor Set at this time.
