593 - LEGO Classic Vintage Parts & Packaging Lot 1957 – 1962

LEGO Classic Vintage Parts & Packaging Lot 1957 – 1962 Dating from 1957–1962, these three small boxes preserve LEGO’s early approach to expanding a collection: buying specific building elements separately. Roof slopes, plates and basic bricks were presented as useful additions to an existing supply, leaving the finished creation to the builder’s imagination.More than sixty years later, the remarkably well-preserved original boxes are the highlight. Their compact format and period graphics document how LEGO was sold before its familiar themed ranges emerged. Two packs retain their complete contents, while the empty 520 box contributes a packaging collectible in its own right—an appealing grouping for enthusiasts of early LEGO history.Included items: 283 Sloping Ridge and Valley Bricks, Red (1957) — 20 pieces (6.2 x 8.6 x 3.1 cm), 520 2 × 2 Plates, cardboard box version (1962) — empty box only; originally contained 42 pieces (6.4 x 8.9 x 3.5 cm), 218 2 × 4 Bricks (1958) — 13 pieces, plus 1 extra brick (6.2 x 8.6 x 3.1 cm).All opened and used. 283 and 218 complete; 520 empty.
