Elba Construction Sets

Elba was a simple construction system for making buildings. It was a simpler system than Mobaco which was made by the same company. It was made in Zeist, in The Netherlands from 1939 by N.V. Plaatmetaalindustrie van Mouwerik en Bal. The company which was commonly known as 'Moubal', was also a manufacturer of sheet metal products. Not quite sure if it also produced after the war, but if it was it probably did not outlast the 1940s.

All the manuals and photos below have come from Caspar Mol's website about Mobaco which also contains info on Elba to whom I am grateful for the permission for their use. There is more information on the system on his website - https://www.mobaco.nl.
