From the beginning of the 20th century, the concept of folk art emerged in contrast to the general urbanisation and industrialisation. The education of young people also followed these aims. To grasp one's homeland in the truest sense of the word and to appropriate it through play was considered an important educational goal, which could be fulfilled by the traditionally manufactured toys of the Erzgebirge. Dresden was an important sales centre. Richard Zeumer's toy shop at Schloßstraße 22 was a well-known address. A mixed lot of German toys from the Ore mountains. Ore Mountains. Around 1920-1930.
