Adress is Gollierstr.16, shop is called Janetzki Arts. But maybe you have the time to come over to visit me near Stuttgart ? best regards Marcus

Hello,sort of lifelong from scale to trains with all forms of soldiers inbetween,about 90% stored now due to a relocation,fla to N dallas.looking for bigger quarters and a collection room plus a couple of 1/1 scale vintage cars. I was always into old Britains with the usual redbox 8 figures-memories. I have quite an extensive restored figure collection as that was how I afforded things in the past,,worked that into a business for some fla friends among other stuff. Now its a mix of my own figures again from a business i had,very small operation, collecting what I enjoy and find plus quite a variety including plastics. certainly a huge variety these days,,plus the usual books and paper unfortunatly I lost a bit in a past hurricane.I put up a few photos of things I have out these days,,thanks for your mail,,its very nice to be here,,best joe h

thanks very much

I can't - wife has a long "honey do" list for me before I go on my business trip to Florida.

Are you going to the annual Washington toy soldier show? The one sponsered by the NCMS

Nope - will be in FLORIDA on client business

R U going 2 Chicago?

Hi Capitolron, thanks -would be great to meet you. I could show you some toy soldiers I collected the last twenty years
Marcus

marcus - not sure if I can make that show - but, I will more than likely be in Munich in December for meetings with KMW - I will let you know as we get closer to that time.

Hi Capitolron, I am very glad to hear that you know my home area Stuttgart/Munich. I have a friend from the US-Army, who lived some years here in our area. But unfortunately he had to go back and now lives in Washington as you do. On December the 6th this year there will be the london toy soldier show. Will you be able to visit this show? best regards from Germany Marcus (Hadrian)

From one General to another, Congratulations! A dubious honor at best. We really spend to much time here.
