(In)Compleat Kieler Part 1 1/10/06 5 Organization of this Catalogue This guide for collectors lists mainly Kieler Zinnfiguren’s painted sets and figures. It is organized according to their catalogues of Sets (Pakungen), Battles (Schlachten), Series (Serien), Group figures (Gruppen), Individual/Portrait figures (Sonderfiguren), and Full Round Artillery and Vehicles (Plastische Geschütze und Fahrzeuge). The sets and figures are arranged chronologically according to periods, and then by nationalities and armies. The first nationality in each period is presented unshaded, with subsequent armies or nationalities in alternating shades. Sets Kieler Zinnfiguren offered sets in two different paint qualities. From 1924 through 1932 these were Hiz and Biz, and Kilia/Oki from 1933 on. Hiz provided an accurate painting of regimental uniforms and flags (“in genauer Bemalung der Regimentsfarben und Fahnen”), while Biz was a simple painting without regimental markings (“in enfacher Bemalung ohne Regimentsabzeichen etc.”). Kilia seemed to abandon the regimental detail but promised high quality tin alloy and accurate uniforms (“hochwertige Zinnlegierung, genaue Uniform”), while Oki was just a modest quality (“einfachere Ausführung”). Even though specific regiments were rarely offered in the Kilia range, Kieler did provide a special service for collectors and would paint sets as specific regiments on request. A few basic uniform types did for a number of differently painted units or armies. A small number of 30 Years War figures did duty for Imperial, Bavarian, Catholic League, Saxon, Mansfeld, Swedish, Weimar or French armies. Turn of the century European sailors were offered painted as German, English or Italian landing parties. First World War English soldiers in steel helmets (among the least interesting figures ever made) were painted in subtle variations of brown as English, Canadian, Australian and American infantry. Despite the great expansion of sets and portrait figures after 1933, there were many sets offered in the Hiz/Biz range that were not repeated in the Kilia/Oki catalogues. The Kilia/Oki sets were also sometimes described slightly differently than their Hiz/Biz originals. For this reason I give the Kilia/Oki set numbers first (prefixed with P or PN), followed by the Hiz/Biz numbers (prefixed with Pa) in brackets, wherever it is possible to identify the same sets. Additional or different descriptive titles used in the Hiz/Biz catalogues are inserted in brackets within the catalogue descriptions of the Kilia/Oki sets. The Hiz/Biz sets that don’t seem to have a Kilia/Oki equivalent are listed after the Kilia sets of the relevant armies. I have left entries in italics where I am unsure of the set number or the original German text. For consistency in numbering I have given all sets four digit numbers by adding initial zeros. These extra zeros do not appear in the original Kieler set numbers. Battles Kieler also offered bigger Battle sets (Schlachten) containing between 70 and 120 figures of opposing armies in their Hiz/Biz quality figures. This seems to have been discontinued with Kilia/Oki, though some post-war Battle sets do seem to have been made for export. Diorama Series Special diorama series, produced by other editors (Vollrath, Hinsch, Gottstein), were also offered either painted or unpainted. Group Figures Group figures included chariots, catapults, artillery pieces and other multi-figure pieces (horse-holders were particularly common from the Napoleonic period on). A number of these figures were listed in Edith Kroschewski’s Sonderfigurenliste.
