In 1957 LEGO came out with the classic windows (9 different) and the
classic door.  In 1958 LEGO came out with the binding brick with tubes
underneath.  In 1962 they came out with LEGO wheels.

Here's a little quiz.  Out of the thousands of pieces LEGO makes today,
only 15 have been around since 1957.  Name them.  (Hint:  some pieces
have undergone some changes, but they are still the same basic pieces).

(...) Gary, Here's my best guess: If I'm correct, do I get anything? ;) If I'm not, will you send me the "list" to (eskimo2@worldnet.att.net)- my new address? 1x1 Brick, 1x2 Brick, 1x4 Brick, 1x6 Brick, 1x8 Brick, 2x2 Brick, 2x2 Roof Brick, 2x2 Roof (...)
