30’s Model biler
During the late 30s LEGO had produced sleek cars with tin wheels in 3 different sizes. The middle size one with extend-sides and the example in LEGO Archives have the logo (starts from 1936) in its bottom.
Sharing some examples from TLG and collectors’ collections.
A smallest type with solid cabin exist which not show here and BRIO also made that type with different side painting during 50s.
