Farm Buildings and Animals
spacer

This collection of farm out-buildings & animals first appeared in 1956 housed in a colorful one piece box. They were made with RED walls and WHITE roofs or these colors were reversed. There is a slightly darker RED variation of these buildings that was also made. We’ve shown the component parts of these buildings and the animals are illustrated below.
