For sale is a complete set of all 36 Marx Toys United States Presidents figurines from the 1960s. It comes with the original white styrofoam display stand, which has 4 pillars, and slotted spaces for each of the figures to fit into.
Each figure is hand-painted, 2 3/4 tall, and has the years and numbers each of them was president with the exception of Nixon, which is blank; and Johnson, which says (36th; 1963 -). This indicates that this set is one of the earlier versions of the figures and display stand, made during the Johnson administration before they stopped manufacturing the figurines. Although there are two open spaces on the top right row of the display steps (which would seemingly be for Ford and Carter), Marx Toys stopped manufacturing these figures after President Nixon. Therefore, this the complete set of all 36 US Presidents figurines that were made.
Marx Toys began manufacturing the Presidents of the United States figures as an educational series during Eisenhower in the early 1950s. They added Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon during the 1960s, and then eventually stopped manufacturing individual figures after the 1968 election (before the Watergate Scandal), but continued to sell them through the 1970s.
