Description

One brick, three colours

Every one of the 30 pieces is the same element, and only the colour changes: red, white and blue. That keeps the parts list short without making the build dull. Identical large bricks become walls, towers and steps, and the colours give each structure a clear pattern. If you plan stripes or a chequerboard, you can alternate the three colours on purpose. Nothing more than stacking and placing side by side is needed, which keeps it an easy way into building.

A collector's piece from the early days

With a 1969 release year, this is among the oldest entries in the catalogue. For collectors the key point is completeness: with a single part type, it is quick to check that all 30 bricks and all three colours are there. Otherwise it works as a clear example of how the big bricks of that era were made and how they clicked into simple shapes. The full parts list with colours is further down this page.
