Old Legos
BlockTalk Summary
A LEGO fan received a treasure trove of vintage LEGO sets from their father, including a complete city layout. The collection, which dates back to the 1990s and possibly earlier, includes a vast assortment of LEGO bricks and parts, along with original instructions, promotional materials, flyers, and postcards.
The collection was extensive, with the city layout alone taking up the entire surface of a ping pong table. The sheer volume of LEGO pieces and accompanying materials filled numerous boxes. The original poster is now sorting through the manuals and attempting to reconstruct the sets.
This collection represents a significant piece of LEGO history, offering a glimpse into the company's past. For anyone inheriting a similar collection, sorting and organizing the sets can be a rewarding but time-consuming process. You might find some LEGO storage boxes helpful for keeping everything organized.
My dad gave me all his Lego from the 90s and probably before. He had an entire city that took up the top of our ping pong table. Lots of old instructions, old flyers, postcards, promotional materials and of course all the pieces and parts. Trying to go through manuals and put together. Boxes and boxes of stuff. submitted by /u/Condorman73 [link] [comments]
