Electric
Elet

Electric was a system for electrical experiments and to make electrical devices and motors. There was also a set to make a synchronous clock. It was produced in East Germany from around 1932 to 1970

Elet is said to be the same as Electric and sold in Italy by the same company that made Falco(2).
