I think most of us would love to have Pontiac.

I would like to see some small vignettes from the collectors club,such as the wounding of Braddock as in the painting,death of Breaujeu (with him actually falling dead).I think the cc is going to focus on personalities.Ticonderoga is more for a general range.

Mark-
Do you have the list that identifies all the personalities depicted in the Braddock painting? I saw one at Lord Nelson's gallery, but don't have a copy myself. It's interesting because there are several in the painting and if I remember correctly Washington is the fellow in the red uniform with his hand on Braddock's shoulder. Not the fellow in the VA uniform (who I think is Stewart). Could be wrong about that, but that is what I recall.

Doug,
You are right in that is Washington.Other personalities are Braddock's servant Thomas Bishop trying to turn a horse with a cart around,Capt.Robert Orme,Lt.Col Thomas Gage(he is talking to Washington),Capt. Robert Stuart,standing above Braddock leaning on tree,Chief Scarouady,George Grogan,standing next to Scarouady,Capt.Roger Morris to the right of Grogan further back laying against a tree.A vignette with Braddock,Washington,Gage Stuart Groghan and Scarouady would be nice.
This is in Robert Griffing's art book,vol.2Anybody interested in this period should get Griffing's books.Beautiful reproductions of his paintings are thoughout the books.

In doing this collectors club I know Mr. Jenkins wants to please all his customers and I know he wants to branch out and do other ranges but I hope he remembers (and I think he will)that the FIW period is what has made his company a success and he will continue to make that his main focus point.

By the way Mike, you have posted some really nice photos on the Forum as of late. I have a lot going on at home right now, so I just haven't been around the forum that much in the past month or so.
