Britains Identification Needed (1 Viewer)

[jomartvr]

Hello,
I have two vintage Britains figures that may come from one their farm series. One figures seems to be a stable boy, the other is a woman. Can anyone provide more specific information on these figures? Also does anyone know their approximate value?

Thanks for your help.

Welcome to forum Ben: I checked Opie's and Joe Wallis books on Britains. The farm boy walking is #563- stable lad walking. Used in various farm scenes. Also, Richard O'Briens 1997 book on Collecting Foreign-Made Toy Soldiers list value then at $9-10.00 The walking woman was also used in various sets and also the Garden Series. She had many different paint schemes. Clothes are 1928 "flapper" type. 1926-41. O'Brien has $16.50-$22.00. Stable lad made 1926-41.Both figures are pre-war figures. Leadmen (John)
