Description
Display of children's turn-of-the-century (1900) toys in the Independence Historical Museum, Independence Kansas.
The first large-scale production of blocks was in the Williamsburg area of Brooklyn by S. L. Hill, who patented "ornamenting wood" a patent related to painting or coloring a block surface prior to the embossing process and then adding another color after the embossing to have multi-colored blocks.
