Maker unknown, probably German for export to US market. Six of the 12 blocks have been reinforced with colored tape around the edges, and on two blocks beautifully hand lettered alphabets replace the original printed version. The largest block is 6-1/8” X 6-1/8" and the smallest is 1-7/8” square. When stacked, the set measures 53-1/8” tall. The underside of all the blocks has a small printed inventory code – 4850 — and all are numbered one through 12 – which leads me to believe this is a complete original set. Late 1800s to early 1900s.

This is a very unusual set of blocks with scenes and characters from around the world, a kangaroo, Dutch children, a sled dog, a boy in a sailor suit, a zebra and much more..
