Description from the seller
Rare original Elastolin French Republic of all manufacturers 5.5 to 6 cm among others soldiers WWII - (see pictures)
1 x horse
1 x soldier (rider)
11 x soldiers
rare figures
Elastolin: mass figures were already produced around 1880 in Austria by the Vienna-based company Emil Pfeiffer, which became world-famous for the "loving and colorful painting" of its figures.
Around 1900 production began in Germany. Similar to tin figures, it covered an enormous range of themes, but primarily military toys. Accessories such as vehicles were usually made of tin, occasionally there were mixed forms, for example tin carriages with crew and horses made of mass. Since other manufacturers mostly adhered to the size standards of Hausser, the products were often intercompatible. Because many manufacturers not only specialized in war toys but also depicted organizations and personnel of the NS regime in their figures, after World War II resuming production in all occupation zones of Germany was difficult.
Very beautiful collection of detailed figures.
A must for every collector. Condition see pictures
Note: The cost for parcel dispatch includes packaging, shipping, postage, tracking and insurance up to 500€.
Figures are fragile. Damage may occur in transit.
