     BRITIANS UNITED STATES OF SOVIET RUSSIA COSSACKS, SET 136

Up for auction is a most interesting Britains Russian Cavalry set. The set is actually 4 of a 5-piece set, but in its original box. The figures included a white horse mounted officer with saber extended in a charge, along with 3 mounted Cossack lancers. Two of these troopers are riding black horse, while the third Cossack is on a brown mount (see Photos). All toy soldiers in this set are near mint and in just amazing condition. All have rifles slung over their shoulders and are wearing very smart dark green tunics.

 

*****

The original box for this set had a rather unusual set title on its sea blue label. It is an illustrated box by the famous Britains artist Fred Whisstock. The box is in very good condition and finished with deep crimson stock.

 

*****

This set displays extremely well both in and out of the box and will make a wonderful addition to any vintage collection.
