    I have been trying to remember the word for old paperwork that came with toys etc. It is euphsomethng. This is about 60 years old and made from newspaper type paper so it is pretty fragile.
    1st is the Jungle Set. A smaller set but it looks fun. I want one.
    Next is Roy Rogers Mineral City. Roy Rogers is no John Wayne or Clint Eastwood but looks like it came with a nifty tin litho town set.
    #3 is the Modern Farm Set. Marx made many farm sets. This is a smaller set. There were some huge ones that came out in the 60s.
    Wrapping it up is the Capitol Building With Presidents. The Presidents are fairly common but display well.

      Ephemera is the term used I think, and can apply to any short life paper items designed to not be kept or preserved.
      These are way cool, very much of their period.
