glückspioniere – The living images!

Assembled here, you will find colour photos of toys made in the former Eastern Bloc from the 1950s to the 1980s. Toys from a different time, from a different world, that were created with passion and patience – now carefully set in scene and photographed.

The glückspioniere – in English 'Pioneers of Luck" – are all about capturing the delicacy, uniqueness and originality of these wonderful objects in wonderful, detailed images, so that you can enjoy their timeless charm.
