I received these flats and need help IDing them. They all came in the same box. The following were in the box: 38 figures marching with rifles and they have a red collar, one holding a flag, four with instruments and a red plume, one instrument with a green plume, one figure on horseback that doesn't appear to be part of the set and one figure on horseback with a red collar. I tried to translate what was written on the box top, but never got the right combination of letters. Thanks for the help in advance.

Simos, glad you got your pictures posted! I am sure one of our members will be able to identify the box if not the pictures. (My guess for the translation is Wurttemburg Airshipmen or Wurttemburg Airship Department or Brigade.)
Interesting puzzle, good luck!

The inscription on the box reads:
45 Mann [men/foot] 1 Reiter [cavalryman/horse]
Württembg Luftschiffer
46 Stück [pieces]

Thank you very much for the information. Do you think these are Heinrichsen figures?
