In 1971 LEGO released 2 Classic sets. The largest Classic set from 1971 was
442A International Flags with a piece count of 6. The current estimated value of all these Classic sets from this year is about $137.50.
The LEGO Classic theme comprises sets that offer a broad assortment of bricks and pieces in various colors and shapes. Unlike many other LEGO themes that revolve around specific narratives or characters, the Classic theme emphasizes open-ended creativity, allowing builders to construct whatever they envision. These sets serve as foundational building kits and include various LEGO elements and parts in a variety of packaging.
1971 LEGO Sets
In 1971, LEGO expanded specifically to the girls market. While in the past LEGO marketed all of its models to both boys and girls alike, it was not until 1971 that LEGO produced furniture pieces and dollhouses for girls specifically. LEGO also continued to produce new sets for the Italian Minitalia brand as well as introduce new parts such as the 1x8x2 arch bricks which were first introduced that year.
