Description: | This tinplate toy field camera and tripod was made in Germany by Johann Meier. The sliding metal plate at the back of the camera shows an image of a camel on a black background. Additional plates showing different images were also available. Tinplate penny toys were mass-produced, primarily in the Nuremburg area of Germany, and exported throughout the world. In London they were commonly sold by street vendors. This one was bought on 30 April 1902 by Ernest King. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Museum of London | Rights holder: | Museum of London | Subjects: | work Leisure Home and Family | Temporal: | 1902 | Source: | Museum of London | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
