Yesterday I found out that my Grandma has a bunch of older Legos.
The Bucket that they are all in is 1615, but couldn't find it in Lugnet
database.
The really interesting parts are some windows and doors that don't
have a complete bottom, they have 'prongs' that hold the part on ..
_^_^_^_ ... or something like that ...
Also, she has some larger gears with teeth on it, several about 3"
in diameter, some 1.5" in diameter, and some smaller ...
Also, I ran across 4x6 plates that has "patent pending" stamped into
the bottom of them, they had the tubes that are 'normal' now
But the really odd parts are the 4x8 plates that had solid areas along
the
bottom. The bottom was just squares where the pegs would fit into,
instead of the tubes like we have now. The parts had a lot of ABS in
them, and weighed considerably more than the other parts ...
She said that some of them are from the 70's ... but I'm not sure what
year.

| (...) BTW, when I was looking on the 1615 bucket, the actual bucket has a copywrite date of 1982, but the label has a date of 1987/1988. SO, this bucket is probably sometime during after 1988 or so ... -- Lee Jorgensen, Programmer/Analyst - Bankoe (...) (26 years ago, 22-Jun-99, to lugnet.general)
