The Marx Prototype Room will introduce visitors to the toy production process along with displays of original artwork, sketches, hard-carved prototypes, one-of-a-kind items, molds, and more. Throughout the tour, the museum introduces visitors to several former factory workers, their accounts, and unique stories about a number of Marx toys.
