Hi, posting for my buddy John, here are a few photos of his collection which is not only tremendous in quantity, but high quality dioramas and well displayed!


 
HOLY COW! That's an awesome collection and brilliantly displayed. Thanks for sharing photos of it. I don't even want to imagine how long it must take to dust that.

John, has some unbelievable dioramas, plus if you take the time and look real hard through the small sample photos I posted, you will see quite a few VERY rarities from many makers. He has an unbelievable K&C collection!

John's collection is stunning, world class for sure, I've known him for over ten years, extremely humble and unassuming, but WOW, his collection is spectacular. The dioramas are all incredible.

For the life of me I don't understand why Louis has never approached John about including a tour of his collection as part of his yearly shindig, you could spend all weekend soaking it all in..........................just great John, you must be very proud and happy to have such a tremendous collection.
 
Amazing! You would never want to move house with a massive collection like that!

WOW...AWESOME...thanks for posting some pics of John's impressive collection.
 
Your friend certainly has an amazing collection and lucky enough to have the space to display it in. And a Thank you, to you and him for the opportunity of us seeing it by your sharing some photos.

So many beautiful diorama's. Fantastic that there is space to show them off. My favourites are the Arnhem hotel and Train. Everything is so neat and tidy, a pleasure to view. Many thanks for the photos. Robin.

Where is it located?
 
Probably worth a trip for you and Louis but a bit too far for me.

Hi Guys,
Apologies for just discovering Tom's photos that he posted on behalf of John's amazing collection...I was lucky enough to be a 'house guest' at John's beautiful house in the Hamptons a couple of years back and I can confirm that he has one of the finest and most extensive collections of WW2 King & Country figures and fighting vehicles not only in America... but perhaps in the world!
He also is the proud owner of some of Gordon's very best dioramas...and some of the biggest! The Arnhem one featuring the Hartenstein Hotel being a personal favourite.
Thanks again for Tom and John for sharing...
All the best and happy collecting,
Andy.
