Hi all,

I bought a few days back a lot of ESB Tin boxes and after checking the Copyrights some are Made in W. Germany.
Does anyone know if any other Tin Boxes Made In Germany exist.

Any help would be fantastic

Lot of Tin Boxes I got.


The German Boxes:



Made in W. Germany:

 
Couple of months ago I saw a Yoda bank exactly like the Vader one and it had the Made in Germany sticker on the back.
Looked it up in the Wish Book (Vol3/p87), they also list an octagonal shaped R2-D2.
It was at a local toy show, and in decent shape, I believe he was asking $20 for it.
 
I have a bunch of items pictured here:

do a search for "tinware". There is a Yoda version of that combination bank as well. I have a few more pieces of tinware I haven't added yet (just no time

), including a unlicensed box with a hinged front that uses the same pattern as the octagonal bank.
 
@ both thanks for the answer. I hope I will found more with the Made in Germany COO...

Tony are those all your Tin Boxes ? Please can you check wht Boxes have the COO Made in Germany

Thanks
 
Looking through mine, most are made in England and the US. The only other German one is the Yoda combination bank.

And here is that tall unlicensed box I mentioned earlier. It has a front hinged cover and uses the same pattern as the licensed hinged bank next to it. I found this piece in London (not surprisingly) since the licensed box was made there.

I know this thread is old, but I picked this up at a local convention for $5.
