Item Description
11x13-5/8x2.75" deep lidded cardboard and wood box has attached paper label on lid showing several Brownies, including Dude, Indian, Policeman, Chinaman and Uncle Sam as well as "The Brownie Blocks" text. Produced by McLoughlin, ©1891 Palmer Cox. Set consists of 20 wooden blocks w/illustrated panels on each side that could used to form whimsically illustrated scenes of different Brownies' activities including - ice-skating, musical performance/dance, snowball fight, cutting Yule Log, etc. Blocks shows wear at edges of paper labels from use w/some scattered flaking, but remain nice for display. Fine overall. Box has wooden sides w/paper labels, some of which have heavy staining. Lid's main panel is thick cardboard and paper label shows moderate edge wear/dust soiling and has some scattered moisture staining and 1" piece missing at lower right. VG. Scarce as boxed.
