The James Gillespie Estate Soldiers & Cast Iron Toys Auction
Five Elastolin Wehrmacht infantry officers and standard bearers feature both parade and tactical roles. The group includes a mounted cavalry trooper with a drawn sword riding a galloping chestnut horse, an unmounted infantry officer walking with a drawn sword, a standard bearer carrying a prominent red Reichskriegsflagge, and a second infantry standard bearer carrying a Traditions Flag decorated with a central national eagle and swastika corners. The saluting arm moves but does not stay raised, and the sword arm also moves but does not stay raised. The end of the sword on the walking soldier is no longer present. The Wehrmacht regimental flag is metal and removable, while the Nazi flag is composite. Normal light wear from age and handling is present. The figures range from approximately 7 cm to 7.5 cm H from the base to the top of the head, while the horse measures approximately 12.5 cm L.
