"Crawling w/ Rifle and Pack" German WW2 Composition Toy Soldier

$24.00

German Soldier Prone w/ Rifle and Pack. He has the impressed maker’s mark on the bottom of his left leg; “Elastolin Germany”. Nice movement and detail to pose. Good paint detail of his equipment and rifle. Paint wear overall but noticeable on his tan bedroll. Known as a Composition Toy Soldier, these were made of kaolin, saw dust and hide glue. This doughy mixture was put in a mold with a wire skeleton and baked. The freshly molded toy figure was given to a Haus Frau, who hand painted it to strict standards as piece work. Circa late 1930’s. Price: $24.00 (ref. C-97)
