Marx Toy Factory History - Glen Dale WV - Wheeling History

Marx Toys were my favorite as a boy in the 1950s. Most of the play sets cost about $ 5.00 each I remember doing lots of chores to save up money to buy them. 

I had several different Fort Apache sets over the years, this was my favorite toy.

tbh this book would be stronger without his occasional weird jabs at communists, like I feel like all they end up doing is undermining his own themes & leaving one with the impression he's either willfully or accidentally (in a way that makes him look kind of silly) misunderstanding marx et al.'s points

The Mighty Vikings - Brave Erik, and his father, Odin the Viking Chieftain - with their mounts.

Produced by Marx Toys (aka Louis Marx and Company) between 1970 and 1972, the figures were part of the Noble Knights and Mighty Vikings line.

These 1/6-scale figures each came with multiple weapons and helmets, and the horses came with an 11-piece saddle-and-tack set. The horses had articulated necks so that they could lower their heads to graze, and small wheels inside their hooves.

Like other Marx 1/6-scale action figures, these were made of solid plastic, so they were relatively heavy. One Viking and his horse together weighed 3 pounds 3 ounces.

“Unheroic though bourgeois society may seem, heroism had been needed to bring it into being — heroism, self-sacrifice, the Reign of Terror, civil war, and the slaughter of the battle-fields.”

— Karl Marx, The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte

One of the paradoxes of Narendra Modi is this: The more he is accused of impunity, the more his attraction grows, because the criticism ultimately acknowledges and reinforces the fact of his power, even as it seeks to question its legitimacy. Marx had written perceptively of Victor Hugo's critique of Louis Bonaparte II. Even criticisms, such as Hugo's, that ascribe the subversion of democracy to one man, "ended up making that individual great", against the author's own intentions, "by ascribing to him a personal power of initiative unparalleled in world history". The permanent revolution of this government is the constant deployment of power till all countervailing power is extinguished. The disquieting question is: What is the social condition that makes putting personality in the place of a constitution attractive?

Marx is another O gauge brand, bacus curves and straights are compatible with Lionel but Marx puts the gear teeth around the edge, making their trains incompatible with Lionel switches

I hope there’s an afterlife so I can fist fight althusser in hell over marx’s humanist intellectual tendencies

"Men make their own history, but they do not make it as they please; they do not make it under self-selected circumstances, but under circumstances existing already, given and transmitted from the past. The tradition of all dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brains of the living. And just as they seem to be occupied with revolutionizing themselves and things, creating something that did not exist before, precisely in such epochs of revolutionary crisis they anxiously conjure up the spirits of the past to their service, borrowing from them names, battle slogans, and costumes in order to present this new scene in world history in time-honored disguise and borrowed language."
