OK, I have never found very many of any kind of soldier-toy auction books because a lot of collectors seem to have already grabbed them up for their data files. This one has a whole herd of the vintage Britains figures in the first half+ of the reference.

Toy Soldiers and Figures Literature, extensive Index - Toys, Toy Soldiers and Figures [of makers and models/toy types], Index - Dolls [of makers and toy types].

For well over 20 years I have been adding these extremely well illustrated, frequently monographic auction catalogues as reference sources to my personal library, and was always absolutely thrilled to find something dealing with my eclectic interests. As with many of the books in my research library, I frequently, when possible, obtained duplicate copies, as I like to have one to use and another as a back-up. They are really a UNIQUE source for hard-to-find data and for use as identification guides, usually containing information about the size, media, dates, styles, signatures, estimated values, and often data on the artist or maker. Older catalogues on specialized subjects are usually extremely difficult to find because knowledgeable collectors had already acquired them as invaluable reference sources when they first appeared!

Book in EXCELLENT Condition!!
