Up for sale is vintage Marx Western Ranch Set in its original box. Although the box is dulled and two of the corners are split, the contents are about as nice as any I have seen. As you can readily see in looking at the photos, it does not appear the building itself has ever been assembled. All of the tabs are straight and have never been bent over and all metal parts are bright and clear. In opening the box and taking photos I took them as I removed pieces so the walls came out first along with a sheet of paper that separated them from the floor and roof pieces that were also separated from the balance of the contents by the instruction sheet. The insert that holds the fence pieces is in place and there are paper bags lettered to identify the various detail parts that are part of the set. I did not mess with the bags because the paper is dry and a little on the brittle side and here too, it does not appear the contents have ever been removed for play. In fact I am not sure the bags have ever been opened. The seventh photo shows the bag containing the play set figures and the next photo shows some parts that were not bagged that include 2 chimneys a flat tree and some other stuff. Although the box is worn this set if a real find for a Marx collector!Thanks for looking and good luck offerding!
