Due to the rarity of sealed vintage Samsonite sets of the 1960s and 1970s, a new, unopened 88 Piece Set could potentially command several hundred to several thousand USD in today’s collector market, particularly if the box, contents, and packaging are in excellent condition.

About Samsonite Basic Set

These are the basic brick sets sold in North America by Samsonite, the luggage maker, which held the LEGO licence there from 1961. Samsonite made the ordinary bricks itself, first at its factory in Stratford, Ontario, while the special parts came over from Billund, and in 1965 it opened a plant in Loveland, Colorado, used only for LEGO.

Basic Set consists of 82 sets that ran from 1961 to 1975. As of today, 080-2 Ambassador Set is the most valuable Basic Set set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $3,550.
