Since both King & Country and Old Northwest Trading Company have recently made war photographers (WWII American and German; Civil War) I would love to see a Roger Fenton set for the Crimean War. Fenton is considered the dean of war photojournalists and should be commemorated in this manner. A Fenton set would make a nice addition to Britain's Victoria Cross Crimean series. The great thing about Fenton is that we have photo documentation of what he looked like, his photo wagon and his photographs of the soldiers. I would like to see a diorama set (likely a Limited Edition) that would include Fenton, his wagon and a group of soldiers from one of his photos being photographed by him. Below are the components:
1. Fenton, self-portrait 1852
2. Fenton's photographic wagon
3. "Piling Arms" photo by Fenton
