    Description

    Tekno Ingeniør construction set is a rare vintage building toy that was made in Denmark.  It is similar to Hornby Meccano and Gilbert Erector sets.
    Based on public information (wikipedia.org/wiki/Tekno_(toy_manufacturer)), this set would have been made sometime between World War II and 1972.  In 1974, the Tekno toy brand was sold and moved from Denmark to the Netherlands.  I contacted the current company to ask about this set but they have no information in their archives.
    Parts:
    all metal
    excellent condition
    minimal wear, might not have been played with
    some corrosion and rust on the threaded metal rods
    full box of brass nuts and hex bolts
    Manual:
    none, there wasn't one in the box when we got it
    Box:
    fair to good condition, strong intact corners, average surface and edge wear, minor paper loss and tape
    sturdy yellow plastic insert is mostly intact with minor breakage in the long rectangular section
    Measures about 10-1/2“ x 6-1/8“ x 1-1/4" and weighs 1-1/2 pounds
    (26.5 x 15.5 x 3 cm and 680 grams)
