A Different Kind of Toy. The Fritz Trupp Collection

These toys are part of the amazing collection from an exibition "Bamboo, Tin and Callabashes" currently being held in the Leopold museum in Vienna.
The ethnologist Dr. Fritz Trupp collected these play-objects during many years of travel throughout the countries of the "Third World".
He documented them extensively and purchased them personally from the children.
