Gama-manufactured tinplate toy tank (the words "Gama" and "tank" appear on the front of the toy), recently offered for sale.  The date of manufacture suggested by the sellers is 1946-1949.  Best regards, JR.

From an ad dated 1959, which I thought some here might enjoy. The tank’s advertised features included an intercom system, revolving turret, elevating gun, co-ax MG, range finder “for pin-pointing targets,” a “real periscope,” 2-way radio controls, whip antenna and flag! I imagine the Pentagon could have saved some major bucks if they’d just bought these Shermans...of course, things are QUITE as good as it sounds – you had to pay an additional 63¢ for shipping charges. If you’re curious, NO, sorry, they’re not even Army surplus decoys after D-Day. Though never said in the ad, discussion on the web-site this came from indicated the “real” tank was made from printed cardboard, of the “insert tab A into slot B” nature. :-)

A REAL mobile Tank over 6 FT long – for only $4.98

Irish veterans of the "Connolly Column", British (English speaking) International Brigade, at a 2008 commemoration of  the sacrifice of their comrades at the Spanish Civil War Battle of Jarama.  The flag is the "Starry Plough" (Plough in the Stars) banner of the Irish Citizen Army, used by a number of Left-wing Irish organisations in the early 20th century.  Best regards, JR.
