Description

West German and German. 1920s/1930s and 1950s. Includes Schuco Mikifex 1022 mouse with original box and instructions; Schuco Flipo Frog 930 and two (22) "Pick-Pick" birds. The "Pick-Pick" birds were one of Schuco's first toys in the 1920's. These are likely from the 1920s or 1930s. The 1022 mouse is marked "Made in U.S.-Zone Germany". Post-war German manufacturers were banned from exporting goods. Americans occupying the territories permitted the sale and export of toys so long as they were marked "Made in U.S. Zone Germany". This marking was used from the mid to late 1940s with old stock often carried into the 1950s. Mouse and frog likely from the 1950s. Marked, on box, underside of mouse and frog. Birds not marked.
