I had no idea who Major Burnham was before reading the link on your post. I learn more from this hobby than I ever did in School.

Thanks Martyn!^&cool^&cool

I'll look out for a copy M. I knew the name of Burnham - as one of the three survivors from the patrol - but didn't know much of his biography. Born with the Sioux eh?? No wonder he led that sort of life!!! Apparently - he was the inspiration behind the character "Alan Quartermain" . jb

You should really publish a book or books of your Trophy Collections.

Your collection is very comprehensive and a joy to behold.

I can see why the the Lt. enjoyed his cuppa with it each day.

Very nice Martyn. I spoke with Pat Wade and he said there was a lot of Trophy at Chicago but had no particulars. Did you receive any info? Tommy
