Title: Walter Timm's Turkish War Figures
Post by: tinman on July 01, 2025, 10:37:22 AM

 I found the article in BFFS Journal 156 entitled "The Janissary Corp of Turkey" to be very informative. Unfortunately, I noticed that the additional information on where to get Janissary figures did not mention the figures of the German editor Walter Timm. I suppose it is because the writer did not know what became of these figures. They were last with FECHNER and were listed on pages 176-179 of his catalog. (See attachment.)


Doe anyone know who is the present owner of these molds?

Zinnfiguren Flesensee has got some of the Timm-moulds. I can't say whether the Ottoman types too.

Thanks Kroi. Nicely painted figures.


Flesesee has a few of the Ottoman figures, but most must be with another owner. For those who are interested, Flesensee has a large number of Timm's "Inquisition and Dutch Revolt" figures.
