| Teknik was made by C.G. Stjernqvist Mekaniska
Verkstad (Carl Gustav Stjernqvist 1900-1993) started the production in 1936 with only
one size of set - #2. In 1939-40 the new factory in Huddinge (Stockholm) was built and soon
set #0 to #5 were available. In the early fifties (1953?) set #6 and #7 were introduced.
Angel girders and other parts were added and most of the parts were also renumbered. In the
late fifties (or 1960) two larger sizes of rubber tires (supplied by Värnamo Gummifabrik)
were added in set #5 to #7 and in #7 the number of parts increased from 854 to 870. 1
million sets were sold between 1940 and 1970, when the factory closed down.
Many had been exported, to for example U.S.A., Canada and Australia. |
