Hello All.
As you get older you have memory flashbacks and I've just had one.
Years ago I was talking to a guy called Robert ???? who worked in my aunts department in Scottish Television he was seriously into flats and showed me a magnificent boxed diorama display of 30 year war figures on the march through a Tyrolean landscape.
....... sorry I digress, he also showed me a flat called The Devils Bridge.
Question is...Is it still available? and if so Where?
Any information would be very welcome.
Regards
Derek

You are in luck - there was an article in the Journal about this in Issue 21.
The flat is still produced by Fechner:

I brought this at the first Kulmbach i went to, over 30 years ago. Then sold it and as i know the person still has not painted it. Its a great item and takes some painting. Yes Fechner still has it for sale.

Morning all.
The Devils Bridge arrived within one week of order. Absolutely delighted.
Probably the best packaged model I've ever received by post.
The bonus, for me anyway' was 7 pieces of thick corrugated cardboard which I was finding really hard to get :)
I'll be moving onto this as soon as I've completed my current project.
Cheers
Derek
