They represent all that was gr eat in German toys in both form and movement. This superbly researched and illustrated book compiled with the close co-operation of the Lehmann company, sets new standards in 'one-make' toy histories. The authors are fortunate in having been able to deal in facts rather than conjecture and give some fascinating insights into the birth of the great German Toy Industry in the late nineteenth century. Every toy manufactured by E.P. Lehmann is illustrated together with many references to toys that were planned but never produced. 700 illustrations including 220 in full color." Show more
