Off To Visit The Wild Colonial Boys (1 Viewer)

[King & Country]

G’Day Guys,

Today I fly out to the land of “Down Under” to meet up with a great bunch of blokes (and a few of their ladies) in Brisbane, Sydney, Adelaide and Melbourne.

For many years now this has been one of the great hilights of my Toy Soldier Year both for the beautiful, cool Aussie Winter weather and for the wealth of great suggestions, ideas and comments that these visits provide K&C and myself with.

As a small token of my appreciation here is a preview of a little project that I am currently working on which has a particularly Aussie feel to it…

If you like it, great… if you don’t, then… “No Worries!” as my mates down in ‘The Land of Oz’ might say.

great to see Edward Kelly and the boys at Glenrowan . If you are thinking of creating? the Traps wore civilian clothes so as not raise the attention of the bushrangers. I personally love the idea but I do not know if it will have legs due Kelly mainly being a Victorian problem. He was a polarising figure , to some people he was was a persecuted man . to others he was a cold blooded killer ( he ambushed and killed three coppers at Stringy bark creek. )

Andy mate,

I hope you remember that old Ned is in the foyer of Hogans Hotel where you will be staying for 3 nights when you visit Wallan Melbourne in about a weeks time. Victoria is Kelly Country.

Cheers Howard

Yet another fine series by the mighty King & country. Robin.

I've already go two 'NEDS' in my collection from the late Craig Pearse who had Wilson Edwards Toy Soldiers.



No room for any more

Good to know John…but I reckon that there might still be a few other blokes who don’t have those Wilson Edward’s ‘Neds’ and still might de interested.
As Ned is said to have remarked as he stood on the gallows, “Such is life…”
All the best from Brisbane,
Andy.
