Do you have all the pre-technic gears etc...?

All that I know of. Two different styles of paddle in 3 sizes for the ones • that
also come with metal axles and plastic inserts, and 4 sizes of paddle that • have
a large hole in the center. Do you have any?

Do you have the chain links for these gears, and the rare universal joints
also?
What about the tires that fit over the 9 tooth gears, and do you have the
metal pegs in both sizes?

Do you have all the pre-ABS pieces, like the rare 2x14 bricks Gary I.
has mentioned here before, that were discontinued long before Lego even
made it to the states?  Do you have the old 90 degree angled roof peeks
from this era?  Shell gas pumps, all 4 Samsonite gears, the Samsonite
transparent motor, the old motor with steering, the train whistle, etc.

Mark you got me thinking.......

Wayne here are a few of the rarer items:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1) 1x1 round brick (Type I without the tapered base) in red with the Esso oil
can stickers, used in very early Danish Esso packs.

2) the 1950's to early 1960's Traffic Police set (#271) with policemen in 4
different poses, one traffic light on a pole, and one traffic island.

3) the 5 different LEGO Cyclists (#270) (motorcycle, bicycle, motorscooter,
motorcycle with sidecar, and motorbike).

4) the rare 1/2 circle type macaroni bricks (came with and without the missing
plastic notches on the side), as well as the 1/4 circle macaroni bricks without
the missing side notch of plastic).

5) the 2x12 and 2x14 bricks from pre-1958 (no tubes on the bottom).

6) Cellulose Acetate plates with the right and left curve 4x8 white plates, but
with the tube bottom, not the common "waffle" bottom.  Also CA 4x8 waffle bottom
plates in black, red, gray.

7) 1x1, 1x2, 2x2, 2x3 or 2x4 Cellulose Acetate small plates in green or yellow?

8) Classic era windows/doors from 1957 (no hollow studs on top, all have full
studs) in red and white?  That would make a total of 20 (10 each color).

9) 1x3x2 white window WITHOUT the window sill, 1x2x2 yellow window WITH the
window sill.  1x2x1 yellow window with and without the sill.  1x1x2 or 1x2x2
black window.  1x2x2 gray window.  1x3x2 blue window (from an old train
locomotive).

10) '50s and '60s old fliptop garage kits.  Doors (3 types) : red, white,
clear/yellow.  Door frames (3 colors):  red, white, gray.  Garage baseplates (3
colors): red (1956-57 only), white, gray.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have all of the above except for the gray 1x2x2 window, the blue 1x3x2 window,
the red old garage baseplate, and the 2x12 and 2x14 bricks.
