A brief history of Louis Marx & Company of New York City, New York:

Its products were often imprinted with the slogan, “One of the many Marx toys, have you all of them?” Arguably, Marx was one of the most well-known toy companies through the late mid-20th century. Best known for their lithographed tin windup toys Marx was also one of the big four among American electric train manufacturers. Interestingly, Marx also successfully revived the Yo-Yo in 1928; it sold well even through the Depression.
