  Re: The History Of LEGO Sloped Bricks - Part 1
 
Jeff, you asked a very good question. Texture was an interesting part of these sloped pieces. The 1958-72 parts packs basically had the same texture. Not until the mid-1970's did the texture on some of the LEGO bricks start to vary. My train station (...) (27 years ago, 14-Sep-99, to lugnet.general)
