For people adoring playing and collecting toy soldiers (Elastolin, Lineol, Durso, Britains, Marx, Timpo, Starlux and many others). I am presenting images of vintage toy soldiers as a historical curiosity without endorsement of any political ideology and propaganda of war.

The colonial war in India 🇮🇳🇬🇧
This evocative scene features flat figures produced by the renowned Heinrichsen company of Nürnberg around 1900, capturing the drama of colonial warfare in India. Accompanying the figures is a striking copy of a paper theatre originally issued by the Schreiber publishing house in Eßlingen circa 1893. Both pieces are part of the Otto von Gariboldi Collection and are currently on display at the Regional Museum Maribor (Slovenia).
