One of the enjoyable aspects of figure and flat collecting for me has always been the history, editors and the engravers and their stories. I collect any of the catalogs of figures I can find many of which are here on the site.
Wilfried Dangelmaier produces a number of figures from a number of well known editors:
- Retter - Trojan War, Odysseus, Roman Triumph, Gladiator Games, Greek Olympics, German Zeppelin
- Wagner - War of the Spanish Succession, Napoleonic Wars
- Zimmerman - Medievals, 100 Years War, Spanish Army of 1500s, armies of the 30 Years War
- Goldberg - too numerous to mention (though they have the only S. American figures I can think of that are not Aztecs or Incas)
Herr Dangelmaier has sent me catalogs for Wagner, Zimmerman, Goldberg and has kindly approved them to be added to the site. He indicates he does not yet have a Retter catalog but, I will offer a version provided by one of our members previously without pricing.
He communicates in both German and English and his service and product have both been indicated to be first rate.
Listings are available here:
