Description
Britains Civilian Toy Figures were instrumental in the development of the die-cast/hollow cast process. These beautiful, hand painted pieces range in age from the 1880’s to the 1950’s; the collection is over 670 pieces and is in great condition. Many of the figures are posable and their arms and torsos can be positioned in various stances. The selection of wagons can be articulated around the other pieces to create a beautiful diorama. The figures come in fixed scales to allow compatibility within the set. The ultimate authority on this collection is Arnold Rolak, who co-authored a comprehensive reference book that details the beauty, collectibility and value of these remarkable pieces. A few excerpts from the book are included in the photos to show the intrinsic beauty and value of these truly remarkable figures. I have dozens of other photos and am happy to share them, if you’d like to see more just let me know. eBay only allows 12. With over 670 pieces, many in original packaging and in excellent condition, this unique and one of a kind collection has a value of over $20,000 dollars. My loss is your gain: sacrificing this remarkable piece of history for $4,500 ALL reasonable offers will be entertained.
