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.

German infantry marching
These German infantry marching figures were produced by Durso (Belgium) in 30s/40s.
During the perod of 1940-1945, Durso factory experienced problems with supply of paints and sometimes cheap alternatives were used,
including furniture lacquer. That's why some of the old Durso figures got this "darkened" colour of their faces.
