I'm hoping someone with Dacta catalogs from the mid(?) 1990's (perhaps
1993 - 1997) can help.

I recently acquired a somewhat obscure Control Lab set:
 
Set No: 2001188  Name: Let's Go, First Computer Control Literature and Software Pack
* 
2001188-1 Let's Go, First Computer Control Literature and Software Pack
1995
Sets: Educational & Dacta
which I am in the process of creating the catalog inventory for. There don't
appear to be any references to this set of most of the other standard sites (e,g,
brickset, peeron) and the only image I could find of this set was at http://www.miniland.nl/Dacta/sets/2001187.htm.
The set in question is the set in the yellow case at the rear of the photo.

Via the wayback machine, I've had a trawl through LEGO's various sites
and have had no joy in finding any image for this set. Based on what I have found,
my presumption is that this set would have been listed in a Dacta catalog from
sometime in the mid-1990s - it may be that this set only was for sale in the
UK/Europe, although that is speculation on my behalf.

I was wondering whether anybody with Dacta catalogs from the mid-1990's would
be willing to take a look through their catalogs to see if they can find an image
for the set. My photo skills are "lacking" and if an image for the set is available
in a catalog, it will likely be better than any photo I add. If you do find an
image for the set, would you please submit it as the image for this set. I'd
also appreciate it if you would send me a copy of the image too please, as I
would like to be able to add this set to rebrickable.com.

Thank you and regards,

David
