There are 16 Modulex bricks with LEGO logo. You are missing one.

According to the Priceguide (last 6 months) you have them all, 15. But who knows
what is out there, as test bricks perhaps?

| Very commonly used for showing prices in say a hotdog stand back in the 80's
(in fact my local one still do that!) so I'm positive that the baseplates
where just cut down to whatever size needed
I fondly remember my grandma's workplace, they had a HUGE Modulex board with
loads of colours etc, used for meetings, scheduling etc. When I used to visit
her I always tried to sneak into that room and play with "little LEGOs" .. which
would completely mess up eveything for the company!
TLG did not (still don't?) make baseplates back then, another company in
Billund(?) did that. They probably also handled the Modulex plates
Now, why there's a plethora of 8x8 I have no idea about 
Cheers,
Ole

However I have never actually seen architectual use of Modulex bricks but I can't
see any use for an 8 x 8 square for this use in particular.

They seem to be so common in different lots that I would be surprised if they
were all custom made from larger baseplates by the users.
Does anyone know:
- If these were actually made by Modulex?
- How these were used?

They could be from the Planning board era, but I am not certain about that.
