I dug up this metal (lead?) toy soldier from a 1910 homesite in Indiana. The bottom of the figure is marked (I think) "Made in England." My questions include-
1- Does this represent a British soldier?
2- What war would this be depicting? (Most items found detecting were from the 1940's, but the style of helmet looks more WWI than WWII to me.)
3- Does anyone know who the manufacturer might be?
4- (This is sort of a repeat of number 2) What year might it have been produced?
5- What metal were these made from?
As always, thanks!
