Presented here are scans of a modern reprint of a pre-war (1930s-era) Marx Timely Table promotional catalog. I am unable to find any indication on this item that it is not in the public domain, and I am offering it here as a resource to other collectors and operators of Marx 6" tin trains. (I do not claim ownership or copyright of the Timely Table or the scans thereof.) Look at the prices! Wouldn't it be wonderful to have a time machine and go back in time to buy a set of passenger cars for 25 cents each? Or a #1615 Automatic Dumping Unit for $2.50? |
"MARLINES MEANS THE VERY LATEST IN RAILROAD ACCESSORIES"
The original document was printed on a 24" x 18" sheet and folded into twelve pages. Each scan is approximately 600x1200 for legibility. It is available as individual pages and as a 2MB zip file.
