CRAP !!
Ole Kirk Christiansen (1891-1958) created the LEGO Group in 1932 as a way to
use old wood from his failed carpentry business. He marketed an assortment
of wooden toys, but his LWO blocks weren't made of wood.
He patented the now famous interlocking LEGO blocks in 1949. The bricks,
originally manufactured from cellulose acetate, were a development of the
traditional stackable wooden blocks of the time.
By 1951 plastic toys accounted for half of the Lego company's output.
