Vintage Tin Toys




By early 1900 1/3 of all metal and tinplate toys made in Germany were sold in the United States, but early in the 20th century American firms began producing large quantities of spring-driven tinplate toys.
 

During World War II, the production of tinplate toys was discontinued because of the scarcity of raw materials, After the war, large numbers of these toys were produced by Japanese, Korean, and even Chinese firms. However, by the 1970s metal, tin and tinplate toys ceased manufacture -- the material was basically replaced by plastic.
