Duq,
Thanks for the additions. I've added them to my site. The coloured bricks
make a nice comparision with the earlier clear painted bricks in the
gallery, which came from a similar/earlier light brick set. I've also had
several people ask me where those coloured bricks come from - now they
listed in the gallery.
The engraved Police brick (I call it embossed on the site) is interesting.
I've only recently 'discovered' that printing variation. I had though it was
only for the gold train printed bricks, but I now have a few black printed
bricks like that, too. I would like any comparison pictures of such
variations in printing technique. I also don't know how or why Lego changed
the printing method, or even what the official name for the engraved process
is. I've seen it called hot stamping.
Thanks for the information and submissions,
Clark
