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.

INGAP tinplate military vehicles 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
INGAP (Industria Nazionale Toys Automatici Padova) was an Italian toy company founded in 1919 and active until 1972. It was founded by Tullio Anselmi and, in the period of greatest expansion, reached 600 employees in 1938. Production ranged from tin toys, intercom telephones, radio-controlled cars and other high-tech games with design and construction of molds in its well-equipped workshop, by highly specialized personnel. The catalog then numbered 400 models.
In 1964, INGAP began its decline, culminating in 1972, when it was absorbed by Eurotoys.
Some INGAP tinplate military vehicles produced in 30s from Beppe Deplano's collection (Cagliary, Italy).
