Another Tower Bridge

Created by employees of the LEGO company, rediscovered by 62 Bricks
Found at: http://62bricks.com/lego-revisits-the-tower-bridge/
Details:
Long before LEGO announced the official Tower Bridge kit, they'd actually already designed a LEGO version of the tower bridge that could be built by anyone. Featured in an idea book in 1964, this actually pre-dates the LEGOLAND parks (which feature landmarks in a "miniland" scale, compared to the microscale of this design or the current kit). Sure, the color palette wasn't as broad in 1964, but the old design is larger and is surprisingly convincing considering that it only uses basic parts.
This is Friday's moment of the day
