I posted one of these a few years back but this one is in much better condition. The other was missing the vaccuform gas pumps in the front. It is a huge improvement. This was made by Ideal under license by Lesney. Lesney being the company that made Matchbox cars. Ideal made several pieces for Matchbox, GI Joe and others. This was made for Sears to be sold through the catalog.
Aside from the service station it also serves as a carrying case for 9 cars. The whole thing folds up so you can take it over to a friends house. Maybe do a little trading even. It will be fun.
So very cool!! I remember having a very similar set on my wish list as a kid when the Sears Christmas catalog would come in.
