Set of “Minibrix” – All-Rubber Construction Toy by Premo c. 1935-40s

£12.50

A set of “Minibrix” which were an all-rubber construction toy dating from the mid 1930s, made by the Premo Rubber Company. The building system pre-dates Lego but enshrined some of the principles of the latter, whilst being made of rubber rather than plastic. The interlocking technique of the blocks – moulded rubber recesses and matching nodes – is accompanied by roofs which are a single hinged piece of rubber. Sloping pieces allow for the fixing of these latter items.

This is a fairly comprehensive set, but it is not known if it is complete. What is included is a good selection of over a hundred bricks in good condition, with a few having damage to their rubber but still usable, two roofs, an illustrated “instruction manual” (/catalogue) and the original box. The box itself is quite dull in colour and has some surface losses but is reasonable considering it’s likely to be over 80 years old.

SORRY, SOLD OUT!
