Products produced between 1932 and 1962 carried a 2 or 3 digit reference number prefixed by the letter K.
Numbers were not engraved into product, but were indicated on the box and in the consumer catalogues included in every product. Trade catalogues also carry the appropriate references.
Where there is a product in the archive we have photographed it. Where we have no product but do have a catalogue then we have scanned the catalogue page as an image 'holder' until we get an actual product to photograph. Where we have no product or no image then we've posted a 'WANTED' sign. Please contact us through the 'Contact Us' link in the menu bar if you can help.
Our grateful thanks to those who have already contributed images, acknowledgements have been made in product text.
Building cubes have always been “favourite” toys during the first five years. These unbreakable plastic cubes are far more interesting to play with than ordinary painted or polished wooden ones, and they are more hygienic. This toy teaches finger-control.
Age: 1 - 5 years.
Year : 1950
Notes :
1950 Catalogue copy
Vastly superior to ordinary painted or polished ones and far more interesting to build up. Immune to attack by tongue or tooth. Full of interesting possibilities from 12 months to 5 years.
1954 Catalogue copy
This toy teaches patience and finger control and encourages ingenuity. The cubes are vastly superior to the ordinary painted or polished wooden cubes and are far more interesting to build up. The hollow cubes, which are light and the correct size for little hands to manipulate, are unbreakable. They are also immune to attack by tongue and tooth. The child will eventually find that he can only build a high tower if all the studs are interlocking properly. <<< Back to list
