 STROMBECKER *
This toy maker from Chicago, Illinois, was the first in the USA to follow Scalextric’s footsteps.  They had been making 1/24 and 1/32, electric-powered scale models, and many had been converted to slot racing use by pioneering enthusiasts. The Dowst Manufacturing Company, makers of the famous Tootsietoy die-cast toy line, acquired Strombeck-Becker in 1957, and Model Road & Racing in 1962. Strombeck-Becker had been making balsa wood airplane kits. The new Strombecker company made the critical decision to produce home racing sets to compete, at much lower prices, with Scalextric and later, other burgeoning American concerns such as Marx, Gilbert or Lionel.
