Bruno Todd has an amazing collection of vintage LEGO toys from before the era of interlocking plastic bricks in his L Gauge Museum photostream. Longtime LEGO fans have probably seen the iconic wooden duck, but have you ever seen a wooden LEGO machine gun?
For a trip into LEGO’s past, check out the rest of Michael’s photos on Flickr.
You can see the L Gauge Museum’s collection of wooden LEGO trains at the San Diego Model Railroad Museum now through mid-January.
omg but what about Lego’s violence policy???
Reminds me of this, and apparently there was a wooden version of it as well:

It’s kind of funny that the mechanism was the first LEGO toy Godtfred patented :D
