| I have a set 309 first box desgn(1958-1959) with bricks that look almost new.
The 2x4 red bricks are the 3001 old without side supports. There is something
strange with the 2x4 white. These bricks have the type bhol04, however they do
not have LEGO on the studs but a big word LEGO in the inside of the bricks. I
can't find them in the Bricklink catalogue. there are some other unknown
bricks in this set, 2x 1x2 red end 1x2 white with a channel that is much thinner
then 4216.I don't think these are early Chinese immitations 
But what are they? I don't suppose the set is changed in any way. In all
respects the set looks 'as being sold'.

The 2 x 4 is an unlisted variation, it’s a bslot04 of some sort with the added
hollow studs.
I believe it to be the transition to the normal hollow stud hollow bricks from
the original slotted bricks.
Does it have ghost slots at the ends or even on the sides, slot lines still visible
but filled with plastic ?
I believe I also have these with Lego logo on the studs and underneath on the
same bricks.

Thank you for ther identification of the bslot vricks. No, the 2x4 do not have
a ghost slot. There are inly two of them in the set, the other ones are the bhol04
type.

| It is and unlisted version like mine.
I asked the question about ghost slots because they can be seen on other bricks
but not these so far.
Another image, top of the grey bricks in other photo.

Hi
Yes it is the brick in the lower left corner. So it was a clearing of old stock?
And stock of old and newer times have been mixed, since the set also contained
the later version of the 2x4. (bho4).

| Don’t know anything of the variations in boxed form for that era, interesting
to hear what you’ve found.
No idea if it’s original.
