Cool figures Martin! What is the provenance on that artillery set? I'll be following this thread for sure!

Martin, great to see you posting.......who made the older figures with the darker faces ?
 


Outstanding again Martin!!!!!

Lets see if I get all of these. First pick is Brunswicker Artillery by ......give a second...Mullberry Miniatures!!!!

Second set is a set of Mexican cadets on parade!! I love this one!! Do not recognize the maker...but a rarity indeed.

Third set is of course your KC Napoleonics. Interesting that you collect that too Martin. You know the Mexican Army acquired uniforms from France that they used for years...I am sure you know.

Fourth set looks like a home-cast that I would possibly go out on a limb as Bedsteads they were very small and around a short time. Could be wrong. But very nostalgic. OOPs sorry this was the last set with cannon on the previous post sorry. The two figures in the fourth post are none other then Emiliano Zapata...VIVA ZAPATA left...and Pancho Villa himself on the right. I do not know these sculpts but I recognize the painter. He shall remain nameless.

You certainly interest me with your collection Sir!!

I messed it up again Martin. The fourth pic section above should be the fifth. The fourth I missed and here it is...forgive me for copying your picture and re-posting. This is my favorite of your collection thus far..these are certainty Russian Niena types...no doubt. JUST LOVE THEM!!!!

I particularly like your Mignot Tambours on tie card!!! You may give that to me for my Birthday!!!! Love your tradition Kit Cooper's. I have never seen anyone else with these my friend. Outstanding!! I like the way you did something with the Napoleon on horseback. I never did like the apple bit.

Great set!!

Hey Guys,
Thanks for the compliments! Nice to finally know who some of the makers are! As a matter of fact, I have received some of my collection from generous collectors around the world. The advantages of being part of the business I guess! Some collectors just want their figures to end up in good homes.:)
Been trying to find Mexican figures from all different eras which is not an easy find but the hunt is worth it.
I also love my Russian pcs which were a tough find but I have to say my favorite figure is my special White Dragoon Bugler!!!
I still have more pics to upload which I will get up on the site soon!
Regards
Martin
