That was a nice range. Shame it didn't do better.

That was a nice range. Shame it didn't do better.

I was lucky to pick up several of the Secundra Bagh pieces from MKL about 4 years ago when they had a very special price on them

Absolutely awesome, Martyn!^&cool^&cool^&cool^&cool My son has a similar elephant column made by John Lesinski, a toy soldier maker who covered a lot of the same themes Trophy did, like these Indian Army Elephants and oxen drawn naval guns from the Boer War.

My son has a huge Lesinski collection, one of the biggest I've seen, because of his "Uncle Doug", collector Doug Luna, one of the nicest guys in this hobby full of nice guys.:smile2: He always thinks of my son and daughter when he visits (Doug gave my daughter a Barbie traveling case from the 1950's full of vintage Barbies and outfits from the '50's).
