This section supplies informations to
collectors which are not always available. I reconstructed some lists
of former editors or listed flats of certain engravers. Dieser Bereich soll Sammlern einige
Informationen über frühere Herausgeber und Ihre Figuren zur
Verfügung stellen die so nicht ohne weiteres erhältlich sind.
Sie finden hier einige Typenlisten alter Herausgeber deren Figuren z.T.
verstreut und nicht ohne weiteres erhältlich sind.
Some information on this well
known French editor
|
Mr. Thiel was an eminent collector - editor who assembled and edited about 1300 Napoleonic flats (moulds). He started around 1930 taking over some moulds of former possesion of editors Biebel and Brandt. Only some years before WWII he started to "complete" Napoleonic (French) Army choosing subjects never edited with flats before or afterwards. He specialized in non-fighting units, as Napoleonic Post service, Service de Santé, Veterinarians, Pioneers (building a bridge), Cavalry watering horses, camp scenes of many different units , Musicians of many units, Craftsmen and beautiful staff units of Duchy of Warsaw and Neapolitan Army. Consequently, these figures are especcially suitable for dioramas. Many of his flats have been edited using Cdt. Bucquoy`s uniform plates like the sample shown here.
