$5 , I'ld have them home by now

Steve,

    Thank you for the lead.  So am I correct thinking that these are around the 1940's - 1950's?  Not finding much on the great internet about the history of the company and their products.

    Thanks,

Well, after some more time on the net, I found that they were started in Phila in 1942, actually saw a news article when they started the business.  Looks like they made board games during the War.  So the buildings are after my time period of focus.  They are at Nick Smith's for anyone that might be looking.

Those are Skyline buildings....more commonly seen is the tin lithoed red brick with

blue roof station.  I haven't seen the hand car shed that much, but the tower is

common.  They also made cardboard RR building sets.

there were only 4 jayline buildings that I have seen, not sure if the were affiliated with Skyline but the Jayline buildings were all brown/yellow/red whereas the skyline buildings had more color litho.
