Penny toy ''Penny toys'' is a name used for cheap tin toys mostly manufactured in Germany between the 1880s and 1914 that were sold in the United Kingdom for one Penny. They were originally sold to wholesalers by the gross for 8 Shillings allowing the seller, often street peddlers to sell them for one penny making a substantial profit.〔p. 17 Levy, Allan ''A Century of Toys from the London Toy & Model Museum'' Michael Edgley (1982)ISBN 0949616001〕 ==Manufacture== Offset color lithography enabled fine detail and color to be applied to sheets of tin plate quickly and economically. Shapes were machine-cut and stamped and then assembled by unskilled workers, sometimes in cottage industries.〔Solis-Cohen, Lita ''These Little Toys are Penny Toys No Longer'' ''The Baltimore Sun'' August 02, 1992〕 Many were manufactured by the Johann Philip Meier company of Nurenberg.
