The Toy Soldier Shop of Washington, D.C. is located within sight of our Nation's Capitol building. It is housed in a restored row house in the Capitol Hill Historic District. Built in 1916 as a doctor's office, the former waiting and examination rooms are furnished with antique display cases offering a tempting assortment of antique and new toy soldiers, as well as vehicles, cannons and equipment. The Toy Soldier Shop of Washington, D.C. will be open special hours every Friday evening in the spring and summer months, to accommodate visitors to the historic United States Marine barracks, just three blocks away, at 8th and I Streets, S.E. when it is open for its traditional free concerts. The highlight of these United States Marine Band concerts is a performance by the Marine Corps Silent Drill Team. The U.S. Marine Corps Museum and Navy Museums are also located nearby at the historic Washington Navy Yard. The shop, which specializes in custom conversions of antique Britains and other hollow cast toy soldier makers, also houses a fascinating collection of antique militaria, books and posters for sale. This combination of historic interest for the toy soldier and military collector, makes a detour to our shop worthwhile for any visitor to the Washington area. Hours: Saturday 10 to 5 and all other times by appointment or chance.
