1933 Built-Rite, No. 7 Single Car Garage in Original Box
Here's one four unused store stock Built-Rite sets which I recently acquired. This is the No.7 Built-Rite (Single Car) Garage. Produced by the Warren Paper Products Company of Lafayette, Indiana. It was one of the company's smaller sets intended to be used with a Built-Rite Doll House. Although typically it's considered one of the more common Built-Rite buildings, in unused mint condition it's down right rare. It's complete and has never been assembled with its scarce original box. Typically the boxes were thrown away once the building was completed. It consists of five flat sections including the box bottom which would've been used as the foundation. (It even has roses around the exterior base). The set creates not only the brick building, but includes a punch out dog, pouch out tree, and a folding ramp. I don't know if instructions came with the set, but there are none included. The original box is interesting. Of course it shows the garage; an early style with barn doors, but the automobile idling on the ramp looks exactly like a 1933 Hubley 2-piece cast iron Coupe! The car was printed in two colors which easily distinguished it as a Hubley (rather than Kilgore). The actual car would've also corresponded to the scale size of the garage. Size: Assembled 8" tall x 7½" wide and 8" deep. Box 7¼" x 7¾" x ¾".
Price Sold: $ 60
