Despite what He-who-makes-it-up-as-he-goes-along,
again, has said in the past; I don't often post on Spanish stuff and when I do
it's usually either common stuff I know about (sobres or Comansi) or stuff I've been sent, so this post is a bit of a
departure as I'm happy to admit I'm 100% sure I'm not sure who made either of
them!
But I'm pretty sure by way of supposition
(the level of presumption below assumption) that they are Teixido, and a quick perusal of that there Intermerthingey (the
Wibbly Wobbly Way) reveals that there's not much known about the company by
anyone, even the Spanish Blogs, so obviously they were a minor company to whom
stuff is still being attributed?
Anyway we'll have a look at two 'possibles'
and anyone who knows more or better is free to add their bit! They were both
shot at that show-and-tell I posted stuff from a few years ago (2012).
This is lovely; An Amerindian (Peruvian?)
clearly; and in the same PVC rubber as the chap Brian Carrick ID'd - also awhile ago - with similar painting but a better size (closer to 54mm),
maroon-red Jaguar-pelt notwithstanding; I'd love to see the rest of the set.
More seasonal this one; he seems to be a
shepherd-boy, but whether from a farm-toy range, medieval line or a set of
nativity 'Belenes' I can't say - as I don’t know!
Again he's toward the 50-mil bracket, again
PVC, but the paint's glossier and peeling (not proper PVC paint). The wire
could have been added by a later owner, but I suspect it's original, a lot of
Early Spanish stuff has wire added, usually as flag or standard staffs, but
weapons, and - as we saw with Jecsan
the other day - angel's 'sky-hooks' can be wire too!
That's it, I'm afraid - quick and easy!
