<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bingamum, post: 4234154, member: 19618&quot;]Thanks Debora. I will leave them natural as I might do more harm than good. Agree about the dates. The horse drawn steam fire engines with that silhouette I have dated to the mid to late 1890s so that dates that group. The car and plane are in the same group and the plane looks like a barnstormer so that dates those to the 1920s. I expect the others all fit in between somewhere with maybe the 4 marked Japan being the outliers. They really are so interesting. There&#039;s a bit more interest in the content on these blocks than what we see on modern versions though the &quot;peoples of the world&quot; group is quite cringy by today&#039;s standard. They were probably viewed as educational though and I think they are pre World War I given the Zulu and the Russian fashion examples. Imagine a kid knowing what a xebec and a zax are![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
