Definitely a good start, but I'm a bit dubious as to why a 1983 set would contain a 1984 catalogue though.

<p>I'm trying to identify a lego set only knowing the color, shape of in inner package. The inner box is blue, dimensions are 18 x 11 x 2 3/8" and 9T plastic compartments,
There is a 1984 Lego Catalog included.  Tried to include a picture but don't know how to do it here.</p>

Adding good pictures and changing the title of your question (to be more specific) will greatly improve the chances your set is identified.

George, since you can't add pictures yourself yet, could you add a link to a pic so that we can edit it in? Also, it's likely the catalogue isn't a full one and shows mostly sets of the same theme as the box, which woudl help, so if you can tell us more about it would be great.

For the inches-impaired ones about us, the dimensions in centimeters are more or less 45,75 x 28 x 6

The only 1984 set with corresponding dimensions seems to be [6080 King's Castle](http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?S=6080-1) but I can't find any picture of a possible inner tray; and that's even assuming it had one (the box picture on [this classic-castle forum post](http://www.classic-castle.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13083) seems to point to the contrary).

There's another good candidate in 1985: [6392 Airport](http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?S=6392-1), but again I can't find any pictures of the box.

1983 brings us [6980 Galaxy Commander](http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?S=6980-1) for which I can't find pictures of the inner tray either (but there's [one on eBay](http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lego-GALAXY-COMMANDER-6980-Set-w-Box-Classic-Space-5-minifigs-minifigures-1980s-/181210892127) where the seller promises pictures in the near future); [7824 Railway Station](http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?S=7824-1) is close too but it's a bit too short I had it and I don't remember it having a blue tray (I'm fairly confident it was red).

Sets containing at least [100 pieces made in 1983 or 1984](http://www.peeron.com/cgi-bin/invcgis/setsearch?Inv=ANY&Inst=ANY&Thumbs=NO&ID=&Name=&Theme=&YearS=1983&YearE=1984&PcsS=100&PcsE=&FigsS=&FigsE=&MSRPS=&MSRPE=) would be my guess as to where to start searching...
