Hello all
I thought you might enjoy some pictures of the visit we arranged for Andy to the Jacques Littlefield Collection of armored vehicles. Jacques very kindly gave us permission to make a private visit to his collection of tanks located here in the San Francisco Bay Area. I did not realize that this collection is listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the world’s largest private collection of Military Vehicles.
As our tour guide we had Author Michael Green, who has written about 30 books on Military vehicles, he has published recently a great book on Sherman’s and is about to publish a new book on Tiger’s.
To say that Andy was like a kid in a candy store is an understatement. Normally you are not allowed on the vehicles; this time they could not keep him off of them. Yes he got a lot of great ideas for future releases.
One of the great things about this trip, I finally was able to visit the back lot, with multiple warehouses stuffed to the brim with vehicles awaiting restoration and spare parts, totally amazing.
Hope you enjoy the photos.
