The set was purchase in the 1920's in Lincoln, Nebraska. The manual has a foil sicker inside with the name of the store, but it is difficult to read. It belonged to Fred B. and Sunbeam Thompson, who retired in Sprinfield, Missouri. Thompson was a college football coach, and coach of the Arkansas Razorbacks in the 1940's. The set has never been sold. I Inherited it from a family member in the 1980's.
