White Tower (IB 240-1)

This image originates from the LEGO Idea Book 240-1, released in 1964 ( a time when LEGO was expanding its influence and refining its “System” concept), and showcases suggested builds featuring this tower. It is rooted in the Town Plan and System themes, reflect LEGO’s 1960s focus on urban.

This nice tower has rounded corners and tiny windows and a red roof.
