1950s CEMENT BLOCK MACHINE Toy 1/8 Scale Aluminum Edward's Mfg Co

This is a Cement Block Machine set for children to make their own 1/8 scale cement blocks for building. It was manufactured by the Edwards Manufacturing Co. Although undated, the style indicates that it is likely from the 1950s.

The set is complete and unused, and it includes everything needed for the budding young contractor: a block machine, inside block clips, cores, and a tamper, as well as a box of cement block mixture and a tube of glue. There is also an instruction sheet and even a sample cement block. The box of cement mixture is still sealed and feels like it is still powder in the box. The tube of glue, while unopened, has some damage to the side of the tube and is hardened. The box is in excellent shape, with no tears, and only age-related fading and discoloration.

This is an unusual vintage toy in excellent condition. This item is part of a small collection. Please see my other items for that remarkable toy.
