Greek Plastic Toy Soldiers from the 50s and 60s

THE COLLECTOR'S GUIDE TO GREEK PLASTIC TOY SOLDIERS

There are several prominent examples of toy soldier books in international bibliography. The best known toy soldier makers from England, the United States and the major European countries have been adequately and colourfully covered in these editions. The isolated, yet high quality Greek toy soldiers are barely mentioned in just a few of these editions. Almost by chance and relatively early compared to the rest of the world, a high quality plastic toy soldier market had emerged almost unobserved in Greece.

The book  Greek Plastic Toy Soldiers from the 50s and 60s is trying to place those Greek plastic warriors where they belong in global toy soldier history.
