  Agreed, both paint and style. Would have liked them to have had the cast "M" included like other pieces...
  
  Pulleys also match other Märklin pieces here

  I can find it all the way through the 30´s in the catalogues, but see no trace of it post WW2 in my meager Märklin database here.
  
  Here it is in the 1937 catalogue:
