EASTERN EUROPE

 

Between 1965 and 1975 they were sold in the department stores of Vroom & Dreesman (V&D).

These were made in Eastern Europe: Poland, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria. I bought several, but not enough apparently, because more examples appear on boot fairs in different forms, colors and sizes. Left: big one is 29 cm, small one 10,5 cm.

Length: 14,5 cm

This gives you an idea of the different sizes. The orange one is the smallest: 9,5 cm

Different forms. They measure between 10 cm (left) and 15 cm (right).

The big ones. Measures from 22 to 33 cm! On the right a collection in one pattern.
