Invented in 1916 by John Lloyd Wright, the son of legendary architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, these are the classic Lincoln Logs that have engaged generations of budding architects and builders in creative play. While watching the construction of the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo, John realized that he could incorporate the same "floating cantilever construction" into a toy that would spark a child's interest in architecture. Just like his father's hotel, Lincoln Logs rely on a system of interlocking beams rather than screws and nails. Made from Ponderosa Pine and stained to match the original, children can follow the blueprints to build a log cabin or rely on their own creativity to construct countless edifices. The 115-piece set includes logs, slats, roof pieces, and eaves that store neatly in a collector's edition pine box. Ages 3 and up. Box: 12" H x 11 1/4" W x 22" L. (4 1/2 lbs.)
