Subject: info on some old bricks ?


Yesterday I picked up a bucket of bricks from a thrift store ...   (this is
usually how these stories begin) and several of the bricks in there caught
my eye. Any information would be appreciated.

o Two large 10 x 20 lt-gray bricks. Studs on top say LEGO, no tubes on the
bottom, only some cross braces. A minifig I tried to put on one of them did
not
clutch very well (possibly not at all).

o Several 2x2 & 2x4 bricks in white and red with a Smaller LEGO logo on
them.
Stylized with what appears to be an open 'O' on the end. Bottom of these
parts
say Pat Pend. Also noted one 1x2 plate with this same logo. Bricks have
tubes on
the bottom, but make a different sound when dropped on a counter top.

(...) I've got one of those large gray bricks (one of the bottom two) from about 1976 or 1977, presumably from set 111: (URL) was my first big set (I assume--box and all paperwork disappeared long ago). Bruce (20 years ago, 17-Feb-04, to lugnet.general)

(...) It would be the third one, no logo nor part number on bottom-side. (20 years ago, 17-Feb-04, to lugnet.general)
