From memory, the parts are generally bricks, with some of the 2x2 and 4x4
wheels with assosiated axle bricks. There are also quite a few of the 1x1
round bricks, which don't have the indentation round the base like the
modern ones. There were also several plates, including 2 4x8 (?) with 1
corner curved. The base of this is a grid, instead of the tubes used now.
There may be more parts, but I can't remember off-hand.
