We are going to try and get the painted set into the Plassenburg museum at Kulmbach, maybe even get there in the next few months  ;)

I would also be more than happy to see this whole set posted in Plassenburg !!!
It is a testimony of the art of flat painting of the XXth century in Great Britain !!

I would be very happy to reframe them into a nice display if they are going to the Plassenburg ☺️

This is the idea I had and think now it is the way to go, will get in touch with the Plassenburg and see what can be done.


Can anyone confirm if these figures where painted  by Jim, Dick's family are also not sure.


So to confirm the painted figures are not for sale but hopefully going to Kulmbach.

This is a piece for a museum of flats ...  Since 2015, this set has been my obsession, but I am getting too old today (approaching 80)  to get it for myself only egoïstically !!


Let me know about offers, I would be ready to bid higher and offer it to BFFS for placing in a vitrine in the Museum of Kulmbach -It is a significant testimony of the art of British flat of the XXth Century and would be better there than keeping enclosed in a private house.


Ready too to share purchase with someone else on conditions of above, Brian !


Please keep me informed...

The last throughs for the Alice sets, no Alice in Wonderland set left but all others I still have one or two of each set


The painted display is also available, been told it was painted by Jim Woodley but no proof, this painted set is open to offers. [ Guests cannot view attachments ]
