IT STARTED PRODUCTION AROUND THE 1950'S AND CEASED PRODUCTION SOON AFTER. IT WAS THE DIAZ BARREIRO FAMILY HERE IN MEXICO WHO GOT THE GIGANTIC LOUIS MARX NEW YORK COMPANY TO ALLOW ITS MOLDS TO BE SENT TO MEXICO TO BEGIN PRODUCTION. THESE PLASTIMARX TOYS WERE AMOUNG THE FAVORITES OF THE MEXICAN PEOPLE.
THEY WERE COLORFUL AND HAD SOPHISTICATED MECHANISMS THAT SMALL MANUFACTURES COULD NOT MASTER. TOYS IN MEXICO WERE SELDOM BOUGHT FOR DISPLAY, THEY WERE ALMOST ALWAYS PLAYED WITH AND SOON AFTER TRASHED.
FOR THESE REASONS AND DO TO PLASTIMARX'S SHORT PRODUCTION PERIOD, PLASTIMARX TOYS FOUND IN GOOD CONDITION ARE HIGHLY RARE OR ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND.
