John, Thanks for posting your knights. I luv it.
I have shyed away from the 100 years war troops. I don't know why because they're great. Lots of it probably retired already too.
Charming set up. Classic toy soldier. Luv it.

John,

Yet more from your (How big?) collection! The buildings then are made from tin plate? Very nice and in a very clean condition.

Thanks.

Jeff

Thanks Fubar and Jeff. Yes, the Marx playsets made buildings out of tin litho. They made castles, skyscrapers, forts and cabins. Alamo buildings and other structures. The tin came in flat sheets with tabs to assemble the sections. I wish they still made the buildings. (1/32) scale. John

Thanks for posting John. I have one f these castles or rather the son has it. I was supposed to get it from him so I can have a place to display the Knights I have been getting. Your seem to be the new ones. But what a great setting for them.

Yes KV: I have the Marx original playset plastic knights but thought the new painted ones would look better in the picture. Looking forward to saying "Hello" at Chicago. John

Used to collect Britains knights when I was younger -- not any more -- but thanks for the posting and bringing back some fond memories.
