<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mansons2005, post: 197096, member: 121&quot;]I&#039;m wondering if anyone has any insight or comments regarding these two figures - which I will assume were intended for a diorama or some such. Will the condition of the fabrics and &quot;sprung&quot; wire embroidery give any indication of age? As far as I know, they originated in England, and I know that they have been in storage for at least the past 30 years (since they came into my possession) - other than that, I know nothing.</p><p>They appear to represent Civil War Royalists</p><p>Approx 10&quot; tall</p><p>Crafted of carved wood with what appears to be gesso faces</p><p>The armour is metal (tin?), painted with radiator paint</p><p>The fabrics are thin and appear to be hand sewn and embroidered</p><p>The hair is human hair</p><p>They are jointed at the arms and parts of the legs.</p><p>Condition is terrible, and it appears that someone attempted to &quot;remodel&quot; one of the faces...................</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]56084[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]56085[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]56086[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]56087[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]56088[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]56089[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]56090[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]56091[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Think it is worth offering these on a site (with no listing fees) at a BIN price?
