    ================================================
    Ideal Super City history:
    Ideal Super City sets were produced by Ideal in 1967 and 1968 only.  They were “scaled to fit all Motorific cars and trucks”.
    The 1967 product line
    was, from small to large:
    Landscape Set
    Roadway Accessory Set
    Action Accessory Set
    Starter Set
    Builder Set
    Town and Country Set
    Skyscraper Set
    Giant Set
    The 1968 product line
    was, from small to large:
    Landscape Set (box unchanged from 1967 ?)
    Roadway Accessory Set (box unchanged from 1967 ?)
    Basic Building Set
    Town and Country Set
    Skyscraper Set (w/helicopter)
    Skyport Set (w/helicopter)
    No changes were made in the scale between 1967 and 1968 so all parts from both years are interchangeable. Most parts were packed in individual plastic bags, except for the parts that were displayed on the orange plastic display box inserts. Many of the smaller parts ended up in Mom’s vacuum cleaner, so they are the ones that are most frequently missing.
    Many of the box inserts were discarded by kids (and parents ?),
    as they made it difficult to put all the pieces back in the box.
    Canadian versions of many (all ?) of these sets were made as well.
    They contained an additional instruction booklet in French and the set box covers were printed in both French and English.
