The Schuco 1500 Garage has been produced from 1938. There still makeing the 1500 under the Schuco trademark. The Garage pictured here from my collection is shown with a Kommando Anno 2000 both made in 1938 - 1941, This can be verified, by the lithograph on the back (bottom plate on the auto) which states "Made in Germany".     Although the Garage could be used with several cars, It was made in conjunction with and often sold with the 1750 Garage Auto. Of course the Fex 1111 was also one of the cars which worked with the Garage.     You "Used" the garage by lifting the phone and pulling on the cord. The doors swing open and your auto shoots out and performs its trick (pulling on the cord does the same thing). Reissue     The Garage 1500 as far as I can see has always been produced under the Schuco trademark in several versions. The pic below shows The "Gaint Set", one of the versions currently being produced under the Schuco trademark. Garage 1500 Gaint Set with , Kommando Anno 2000 (White), Command Car and Whistle
