Help, or address, needed (1 Viewer)

...New to this forum, but it looks interesting. I have a modest collection
(160) of Britain glossies and I have read that there are repro boxes designed/made by a "Roan"
Does somewone have the address or email of this individual so that I can get ahold of some of these?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Terry,

Welcome to the forum! Look forward to hearing about your collection and what you are into currently. As to your quest for boxes I cant be a lot of help but they do come up on ebay so keep an eye open there. Also you can contact the folks at London Bridge Toy Soldier shop they have a webaddress:
www.londonbridgetoys.com
or call them at 610-967-6887.

I have had luck with them on other items that were long retired so you might as well. They also sold repair parts for old Britians and may have an idea of where you can find boxes.

Best of luck

Dave

Hi Terry
I'm new too - good 'ere innit?

Another source of lookalike red boxes can be found (in the UK though), from

www. Dorsetsoldiers.com

But why keep them in boxes - show them off!

All the best - johnnybach (Royal Signals - retired - and loving it too!)
