Product Details

Up for sale is a rare, exceptionally well-preserved pristine lot of 43 authentic vintage Kieler Zinnfiguren (Kilia/Ochel) 30mm flat tin miniature blanks. This historic set depicts the Russian Line Infantry/Musketeers in winter greatcoats (overcoats) marching during the Napoleonic Wars (1812–1814 Russian Campaign). Every single figure in this lot was cast from the legendary mid-century slate molds engraved by the celebrated German master craftsman Wilhelm Sambeth.
