I'm curious about the Eiffel Tower in the window. Would it have been a model for a child to build, or something else? Anyone know?

I bet it was to show what you could build with an Erector set. My brothers had one in the '50's. sort of the first version of leggos I suppose!

I wish I had one just like it

An Erector set hadn't even crossed my mind, but that makes sense. Thanks!

Gilbert patented the Erector Set in 1913. Meccano had been patented by Hornby in England in 1901.

Doesn't seem right, not to have a Red Ryder Range Model Air Rifle in the window amongst those other toys. ;-)
