Nice...I wonder what they sold for?

What is a good resource for prewar Marx? Is there a Greenberg book out there that covers Marx production?

I'm sure there is, Paul, but I'm not a huge Greenberg's user.

Saw this set plus a non-working windup locomotive for about $75 at a flea market last month. Pretty bad condition, and I wasn't interested. I prefer the 8-wheel cars, I'm afraid.
