Toys used for Lowenfeld's 'World Technique' therapy

Extensive collection of toy figures as provided at Margaret Lowenfeld’s Institute of Child Psychology for children to create their sand tray ‘worlds’ as part of Lowenfeld’s ‘World Technique’ therapy. The toys are sub-divided into twenty subject areas, and are of various ages – although predominantly 1930s-1960s.
