Title: Pope-theme series of Karl Mohr
Post by: snagy on September 22, 2019, 06:08:11 AM
There is an offer for a set, claimed to be a Mohr engraved series with theme of the Pope.
Not known which one.
I tried to find some further information of the web but found nothing.
Does anybody know something more about this set??
Thank you!
Sandor

Hello Sandor,
the name of the set is "Papst Julius II. besichtige den Apollo von Belvedere" (in English "Pope Julius II. is visiting the Apollo of Belvedere").
Scholtz is selling the set but I don´t know who owns the moulds at the moument.

I purchased these set from Modelbau Holland Merten, they carry most of Mohr’s sets.
