Original German WWII Era Lineol Toy Soldiers Marching Band Lot - Lot of 13

Original Item: Only One Available. During the 1930s, various companies in Germany such as Elastolin, Lineol, Marklin, Tippco and Wiking began to make numerous toy soldiers from painted "composite" materials, and later on from plastic. They mostly made German soldiers, but they did also produce soldiers from other countries, so that more complete battle scenes would be created. They were also generally available from each maker in several different sizes.

This is a great set of thirteen Lineol & Elastolin marching band toys from the pre-WWII period. Some are in rough shape with paint loss and breakage of certain pieces.

There are 13 soldiers total, and all are marked on the bottom LINEOL / GERMANY. The set consists of:

- One soldier carrying a large drum.
- One soldier playing a Tuba.
- One soldier marching with a swagger stick or baton in hand.
- One soldier with a smaller snare drum.
- One soldier with a tuba turned sideways.
- Band leader, carrying long white and red stick.
- One soldier playing trumpet.
- Two soldiers playing flute.
- One soldier playing French Horn.
- One soldier with cymbals.
- One soldier with snare drum looking right.
- One soldier marching. 

The figures are all in good condition, with deformation but nothing terribly serious. A really fantastic composition figure set from the interwar period, ready to add to your collection!
