Comments:
Steiger's collection of classical toys concentrates on the 150 year history of toys made from wood and tin, of dolls, doll's houses and models of houses belonging to the middle-class and the nobility, reconstructed down to the smallest detail. The history of the "Golden Age of Toys" begins with coaches drawn by teams of tin horses, with cars and motor cycles, continuing with aircraft, airplanes, paddle-steamers and ocean-going liners and closing with toy trains, including the oldest Märklin engines, train stations and every accessory possible.Farms are populated by animals from the woods and fields, exotic wild animals are presented in a zoo and in circus rings and clockwork tin clowns bring to life a world of swings and roundabouts.In addition, the old teddy-bears deserve a mention, several hundred Barbie dolls, tin robots, steam-engines, Schuco cars, building bricks and games, physical, optical and musical toys and many other surprises, not forgetting the most famous and most valuable tin toy clockwork wonders from France, Germany and America.
