These smaller scale figures in 54 and 65mm size were originally marketed under Pete's "Border Miniatures" label as white metal kits; all the sculpture and painting is by the author.

Very beautiful figures indeed. I'm particularly pleased to find this page as I have the standing Westmorland & Cumberland yeomanry figure from an auction site to paint, but was utterly clueless as to who made it!

Did some of the Border Miniatures figures later get sold to Gregg and Abram Simon of Fleurbaix Toy Soldiers Australia and new Zealand? Did they also later become "Barton Miniatures" some of them? We own ROSEDALE and there seems to be some story about a few Barton or Border figures getting sold at some time or another to somebody who made Rosedale. is there any truth in this please?
ReplyDeleteNo truth at all!
