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.

Neumann's composition Cossacks
In 1931 Neumann & Co, gunsmiths from Liège (Belgium), initiated production of composition soldiers. The production was continued till 50s. During these years, Neuman created interesting sets representing WW2 Belgian, German and French armies; Abyssinian War, Cossacks and Chasseurs Ardennais. The Neumann soldiers stands are marked "Fabrication Belge".
Some collectors believe that the pre-war Neumann Cossacks were designed by White Army immigrants, Neumann workers, living in Liege.
