Over het boek
In today’s venerated era of late 19th c. American tinplate toymaking, the German contribution is little known. Nor is the severe effect that cheaper toys from Germany itself would begin to have on the uniquely American domestic industry at the end of the century.
In the face of that competition two German immigrants living and working in Brooklyn, Hermann Thomass and Richard Teichmann, would continue the line of the most famous of the American producers, Althof, Bergmann Co. well into the 1890s and, in the second case, successfully meet and survive the competition in his own particular way.
