LIONEL TRAINS PRESIDENTIAL KIT No. 1640-100 |
The Lionel Presidential Kit No. 1640-100 was available only in 1960 as part of Set No. 1640W. This set consisted of: |
Illuminated Santa Fe BLUE striped Vista Dome Car No. 2412. |
Two sided tape was included to hold these banners to the car sides as was illustrated on the "C Sheet." The customer was to cut this tape into thin stripes to hold these banners to the sides of the cars. Six sheets were included in this kit. They were labeled "A" to "F" and we’ve illustrated these sheets below. |
Also included were sixteen figures of the candidate and an audience. These citizens were made available by Plasticville and were housed in a separate sealed clear cellophane package. We’re unsure exactly which citizens were included. In the picture above two of the citizens were manufactured by Littletown which Plasticville absorbed in 1955. Can you find the two Littletown citizens? If you have any information about the contents concerning the citizens that were included in this accessory we would like to hear from you. Please use the "Contact" link at the bottom of this page. |
The ORANGE/RED box for this accessory was a one of a kind that was specifically designed to hold the contents of this Presidential Kit. |
