Описание: The History of Toy Soldiers While William Britain’s 1893 hollow-casting method was groundbreaking, the mass production of toy soldiers began much earlier. In 18th-century Germany, manufacturers like the Hilpert family were already creating two-dimensional tin figures known as 'flats.' After Britain’s three-dimensional lead figures dominated the market, the 20th century introduced new materials. German companies like Hausser and Elastolin developed durable composite figures from sawdust and glue. Following World War II, the industry shifted again as companies like Airfix in the UK and Louis Marx & Company in the USA began producing the plastic soldiers that became a staple in toy chests worldwide.
