James Opie talks toy soldiers

In the first quarter of 2024 the hosts of the OMSS Zoom meetings were delighted to have a very special guest, author James Opie from the United Kingdom.

​

Mr. Opie has written numerous books on the subject of toy soldiers.

 

During his 75-minute presentation at this Zoom Meeting Mr. Opie talked about toy soldiers and showed many slides from his personal toy soldier collection.

This Zoom Meeting was recorded and subsequently the Ontario Model Soldier Society's YouTube channel created a 5-part series containing all the footage from this wonderful presentation by James Opie.
