Many of these used ingenious designs to create dancing, climbing, walking, crawling and rolling toys usually powered by a wind-up fly-wheel drive. One of the best known manufacturers of these mechanised tin toys was the firm of E.P. Lehmann founded in 1881 in Brandenburg, GermanThe popularity of tin as a material for the mass production of toys began in the early nineteenth century. The first tin toys produced were mainly flattened representations of objects such as soldiers which were then hand painted. In the 1830s the United States which was less constrained by traditional toy making in wood materials had been the first to embrace the use of tin to manufacture toys. By the 1880s however European toymakers, particularly those in Germany, had regained the lion's share of the market and were producing cheap tin toys for global distribution. Initially Lehmann produced tin cans for aniline dyes but gradually moved into the production of fly-wheel driven tin toys. Most of these toys were produced for export and their colourful designs were often humorous and produced to appeal to both boys and girls. Some of the early designs like the climbing monkey, walking dog and crawling beetle became classics and remained popular for many years. The reformed Lehmann toys company continued to produce quality tin-toys into the 1970s.You are here to buy and I am here to sell.......Perfect Recipe!!I do my very best to be accurate describing this WEST GERMANY BEAR WIND TOY BEAR I love to learn.
