The Plasticville Motel

The Motel was first released in 1957 in a one piece No. 1621 box and was a Littletown design. It came with three paper flowers that were placed on the walkway and three cars.

In 1971, the two piece No. 1913 box was introduced. This version did not have the paper flowers and only sometimes came with the cars.

Aside from the current issue, the colors of this piece are always SALMON walls and WHITE trim or these colors are reversed. The walkway should always be the same color as the roof. We’ve illustrated what is commonly missing from this kit below.

1621 Motel Flowers

Flowers
Three paper flowers came with kit No. 1621 and are often missing. They are available as reproductions. They went in front of each of the motel rooms as indicated by the arrows. Note that the walkway is the incorrect color in this picture.

Motel Automobiles

Automobiles
When first released as the 1621 the motel came with three autos. Many times they are missing. Some later issues would not have these cars. I need these autombiles to complete the kit that I have. You can identify a Plasticville automobile by the inscription on the underside as illustrated to the right. Also SEE: Vehicle Assortments.
