A Wonderland for the Little Ones "Meccano A TOY AND EDUCATOR IN ONE Meccano is without a doubt the most ingenious Toy of the age,' and its educational value is great. To the boy of a mechanical or studious turn of mind it's invaluable, as it amuses and educates at the same time. The bo3-s are wildly enthusiastic about it, and parents will be quick to see the advantages of fostering the mechanical genius of their boys. It instructs the children in the use of their hands and brains at the same time. Meccano consists of bright plated steel strips, angle brackets, plates, gear wheels, bolts and nuts everything necessary for building working models of cranes, towers, bridges, railways, wagons and machinery of various types.
