I have no idea who Rob is, much less any idea as to where his references come from. I think I maybe need to quietly walk away from this forum because I am not a member of the club.

Just spent an hour trying to post pictures by following the directions in the FAQ. Failed. I was able to create an album with pictures in it, but that's all. Not sure who wrote the directions, but maybe whoever did could monitor a complete novice trying to follow the directions to determine...

Comparison pictures of Collector's Showcase ACW with K & C and WBritain

CS compared to WBritain and K & C
