Hello, all.
I was over at the ECDC (Early Childhood Development Center) in the
parish today, and asked to quell a disturbance in the LEGO corner.
While there (heehee) I found a piece of monorail track (will have to go
back and search more carefully this weekend!), and two other pieces.
Piece one: This is probably pretty easy...it looks like a wagon wheel,
but is red, and 1.25 in in diameter.It is surrounded by a rubber tire,
and had a metal pin sticking out of the back. There are 12 spokes in the
center. It would look GREAT on a circus wagon type vehicle, If I had
several more of them. What is this piece from?
Piece two: Maybe a stumper. It is black, and 2.256 inches high, x @ 1.25
x@ 1.25. It has 8 sections on one side, and looks a little like a corner
piece of some sortIt slopes out from the top to the halfway point, and
then back again. Looks like a 45 degree slope, more or less. Says (c)
LEGO group, which may help date it a bit, and has two ovals on the
indented area. These don't seem to serve ANY purpuse, not even
decoration, so may be for identifying in some way?
Underneath, in the square to attach to the baseplate, says 4737, and
then under that 3 (space) 02. Anybody know what it is, and what set it
came from?
Thanks,
Rob

| Yes, the red spoked wheel is from one of the early-mid 1970's sets that came with those wheels. Most of the sets came with red wheels, but some had them in white. They were common in some of the Model Builders Sets of the 1970's. One such example is (...) (25 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.general)
