Window-frame slotting method, Kiddicraft Self-Locking Building Bricks, manual [image info]
A model shop built with Kiddicraft's Self-Locking Building Bricks.
Features include use of a printed cardboard slot-in door, a printed cardboard slot-in window, cardboard roof, and a slot-and-clip plastic window frame. The cardboard shop window display was one of many card inserts supplied wit the set, or children could cut out and colour their own inserts as a way to make their play more creative.
The way that the window frame clips between two rows of studs is more commonly considered to be a "modern" Lego construction trick ("SNOT" - "Studs Not On Top").
