OK, what confused me was that some of these things are still one piece today juniorization?), such as trees and roadsigns. And the 1:87 cars/trucks were in existence 7 years before any Lego wheels came out. So some of these things that might be considered juniorization today, couldn't be considered that way in 1955 because the parts that make up cars and trucks were not even in existence back then. ;-)
