Ben,

These were also available in the UK between 1966 and 1968, as a pack of
bricks, or a 'Pull Toy' set. They were called "jumbo sized Lego bricks" for
ages 6 months to 4 years, and pre-date Duplo.

If anyone is especially interested, I can send them a scan.

HTH,

Phil in Yorkshire.

An early Duplo perhaps?  They are larger than today's Duplos though.

I put the grey 2x4 in for size reference.  The person that gave them to me says
he's had them for years.  I have 4 red and 5 white.
Thanks,
