Hello,

I falled on a "book/manual/folio from LEGO that is around 1980 i would say.
There are drawing-boards from set (in this one there are 3 ones) with the differents
sizes etc.
(I linked 2 pictures of the folio)

Wanted to know if somebody knew if there was more folios like this with others
drawings or if it's the only one?
If there are more : where can i find some? Does somebody has few and would be
ok to give/sell some? Or just a scan ? Or maybe there are some pdf or internet
or something?

Thanks for help.

Hi, this is Belgian the leaflet "97875-Be." from 1974.
 
Catalog No: c74be2  Name: 1974 Medium Belgian (97875-BE)
* 
c74be2 1974 Medium Belgian (97875-BE)
Catalogs: 1974
It's known to exist in various local variants, at least DE, CH, AT, NL, BE,
FR, DK, SV, NO, IT, PO & JP. Many of these are in Bricklink the catalog already:
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/search.page?q=97875#T=A

The drawings are always the same, these variants only differ in texts, though.

I believe (though not 100% sure) that this 97875-xx is the only catalog including
such type of construction drawings in 2D.

  If there are more : where can i find some? Does somebody has few and would be
ok to give/sell some? Or just a scan ? Or maybe there are some pdf or internet
or something?

The 1977 versions of the European Technic/Expert Builder sets (850-853) included
a similar drawing of the main model in poster format - at the backside of the
instructions poster for the secondary model.
(these four sets didn't come with A4 sized, stapled instruction booklets
yet, but with two foldout posters instead).
See the alternate catalog images and current listings for sale here:
 
Instruction No: 850  Name: Fork Lift

850-1 Fork Lift
Instructions: Technic: Expert Builder
 
Instruction No: 851  Name: Tractor
