Now this is my cup of tea!!! Fabulous display. Can I ask what you have used for the castle? Nice blend of manufacturers as well. I see Marlborough, Imperial, Britains and Ducal. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Thanks for your interest. The owner is Ted Lyman, of our club. Ted's a master display artist. If memory serves, the display background is by Windows of the World.

I was thinking you'd like this, then saw your post. What a great diorama of ceremonial Winsor! It is majestic and min-epic (meaning great in a small space). I have heard of Windows of the World but would thouroghly enjoy more info. Thanks, PJ!

Thanks for the kind words. Ted is a master displayer with a background in theater. As for Windows of the World, I can't find a link to this guy on the web. I have seen him at major shows, but not recently. You may have to look for him there or ask a dealer friend.

The Windsor Castle background is at least 10 years old, by my reconing.

Thanks. I've actually tried looking...The website is gone, but I have an address out of Port Richie, FL. Seems there was an emphasis on the Alamo.
I'll see what happens.

That Florida address sounds familiar. Good place to start your tracking.

RE your signature line: Cave ne ante ullas catapultas ambules.
(8 years of Jesuit schooling made me do it!!)

Well, maybe at one time prison did that, now I'm afraid it is more like:

Estne volumen in toga, an solum tibi libet me videre?

Keeps me on the straight nad narrow.

I saw on the internet that WoW was on a list of vendors for a South FL toy soldier show. Maybe you could track him that way.

Ok, either I missed the connotative menaing, or your latin is better than mine - perhaps due to more beatings and more "carcer"?

Hope you find WoW.
