This antique game / toy is a set of building blocks to make buildings and bridges.
It is number 1A.
I searched and didn’t see any #1’s.
Must be fairly rare.
The sliding lid is missing about 1/4th of the bottom of it.
The box is 7 1/8” by 5 5/8” by 1 3/4”
I did a little research and the blocks are made of quartz sand, chalk and Lindseed oil.
I think it was made in Germany based on information that I read.
The 3 metal parts are there for the bridge. It looks like it is missing the clasps.
It’s probably missing some of the blocks.
The front page of the pamphlet is missing and one page is torn out.
This must be equivalent to the kids legos now days.
Really cute set.
