Hello Artillery Crazy, Only too happy to help a fellow enthusiast. Over £240 each eh? I'll have to start viewing my own CJB collection as an investment, rather than simply a pleasure! Always liked the Forward Control - I own a variant of it, so couldn't really justify adding another to the...

Hello Artillery Crazy, If you have a squint at the next Vectis auction (21st March 2012 - Hey! that's tomorrow!) then you'll see three CJB Morris Commercials are up for sale. Thought the estimates are somewhat modest. They'll be very good value even at the top estimate. I think you already...

Hello Britfarmer - Just learning the ropes - Let's see if this works....

Hello Martin, Just a quick update on the HM of GB 'quest'. I've had a nice exchange of emails, letters and phone calls with Jenny over the past two weeks. She recently sold any figures she didn't want to keep (space issues) to a dealer in Yorkshire, but took a photos of everything which is...

Glad to hear that someone else is interested! - There is still some detective work to ahead, but I think the end result will be worth it. My collection is in temporary exile at my parents house (too many little hands in mine at present), but by chance I am staying with them at the moment and...

Hello Father Greg, Just spotted this old thread on your reissued HM of GB Camel Corps figures. I've always had a soft spot for these handsome camels, which originally came with a very attractive two-tone sprayed paint finish. I saw six slightly care worn examples at the London Toy Soldier Show...

Hello Martin, Interesting to read your comments -I was actually just about to try and contact Peter's widow, via a trader called John Woolf. He was selling some remnants of HM of GB stock on Jenny's behalf at the December 2005 Toy Soldier Show which was where I picked up two more of the bronze...

Hello Martin, I hadn't given much thought to who might have mastered the range until I read this thread, but now I've looked at the figures afresh, I can definitely see your hand, as it were. I think it's the shape of the bases and poise of the horses. Reminds me of some very attractive West...

Hello Boerboy, Just found this thread in my searches for information on HM of GB and wondered if your catalogue includes images of their 'Tudor World' range, which I suspect was one of Peter's first series. The figures I have are dated 1989 on their bases, and I was bought mine in 1990-91 in the...

Hello Martin, Just came across this old thread on the forum and wondered if you could help me in my long-running search for some of HM of GB's most original output. Were you by any chance involved in the design/production of the 'Tudor World' range that Peter produced mainly for the Mary Rose...
