Bing
Nuremberg
1866 – 1934
Company founded in 1866 by brothers Adolf and Ignaz Bing, the first toy was produced in 1879. Well-known for their trains, they were the driving force behind the Nuremberg toy style. In 1927, one of the sons, Stephan Bing, left the company, and soon the country, for England, where he was to create Trix. Bing ceased trading in 1934. Its stocks and tools were acquired by K. Bub, Jos. Kraus and Fleischmann.
