Märklin iadvertisement cars (Werbewagen) in my collection, per February 2013

Updated 18.02.2014

These cars are made by Märklin after order from companies or a Märklin dealer.

This is an example of a  newer type  advertisement car box

I call this White unmarked box.

The older type box was the good old blue one

A couple of my blue boxes are marked by the company/companies ordering the car, in this case Collector Model,  a former Norwegian model railway small series  manufacturer and a Märklin dealer in Oslo, Norway. I call this Blue marked box.

I also have some cars in unmarked blue boxes, which I have marked some of them myself, to be able to find tem in the shelf,

I call this Blue home marked box.
