Toys : Wooden Blocks : The Museum Block Set
When we saw these building blocks we went nuts! The Frank Lloyd Wright Prairie House and the leaning tower of Pisa were just too cool! I guess you could say we're just kids at heart!

The Museum Block Set
Product # TY-WB-MB
As you walk on Fifth Avenue next to Central Park in New York, you see something wonderfully unique among the tall buildings. The early design was called Optimistic Ziggurat because of the rounded structure on the end of the building. The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright not only to show works of such masters as Kandinsky, Picasso, Leger, Klee and Chagall but also to make the building and the painting "an uninter- rupted, beautiful symphony such as never existed in the World of Art before." This 54 piece block set allows the ele- ments of the "Optimistic Ziggurat" to be constructed and enjoyed over and over. The pieces are attractively Grafted from hardwood maple. The beautiful wooden box with a slate cover serves as the city street.
