MPC made an intricate cabin for use in their western playsets. Windows and doors clipped onto the frame and at least three different front were used. These were used in their Gunsmoke playset and a few others but are scarce. The mold still exists and has been run to include with later "Marx" Fort Apache playsets. MPC switched to a simpler, cheaper building which is easier to find.

Older style buildings and pieces.

NONE - Texas Rangers building complete with all windows and door.

NONE - Jail Building.

NONE - Cabin front, brown.

Above shows some of the building fronts used with the MPC buildings. Bottom row with the older building and top row with the later building. Later buildings were also used with police, construction and military themed sets.

The later building is more flimsy and does not have a rear wall so you could place figures inside. Also the door was molded in and was ofter cut out by the owner. Two styles of assembly have been noted; with "pegs" and with "tabs". Tab versions connect better.
