I was scrounging through an Ideal advertising book when I remembered this somewhat more sedate Evel Knievel set.
This has to be Ideal's response to Big Jim, who was pretty much the king of Camping related toys in 1975.
Turns out, this is a pretty rare set that got limited release and a sealed one probably commands much more than I've got in my wallet right now. The box is also reportedly the largest produced for the Evel Knievel series.
I don't collect Evel Knievel toys but I do sometimes like to walk by the bakery and smell the donuts if you get what i mean....
