Trophy at the NJ show Nov.2nd 2014 (1 Viewer)

I was lucky to find some great deals on Trophy at the NJ show yesterday.
Bought Indian Muntiny sets including elephant and wagon sets at bargain prices.
Also bought Napoleonics, civilians, AZW and Crimean war sets really cheap.

Alex (boerboy) was selling off surplus yesterday and it was he who had the great sets. Unfortunately, I'm a little too late to the game to collect Indian Mutiny and I don't collect AZW so I wasn't fortunately tempted by those.

Alex also had a nice assortment of old K & C, matte as well as glossy, and I was able to pick up a K & C Gloss Nap that I needed, which an eBay seller was trying to sell at three times the price so I was quite happy to get it.

I think a table near Alex's had several Trophy T & C, which unfortunately I missed out on. By the time I got there all that was remaining was the Sea Captain and his wife and as I have it, I passed.

I was able to grab this little fellow at the show. I thought it was great just as a cute stand alone piece:

You are lucky, I picked up some civilians and boxers, but the ones you mentioned I thought were going for a fair price, but I must have missed the bargains!

I got to the show very early as I came from NYC and wanted to avoid the Marathon craziness. I went in to use the facilities and noticed the Trophy sets at a table with many older sets....Britains, Mignots, etc.
I was surprised to see the Trophy Indian Muntiny sets and although I have them I asked for a price. The dealer said he picked them up at an antique store and the boxes were in bad shape. He asked me to make an offer so
I threw out a relatively low bid. A little negotiation and they were mine, then I bought five other sets at equally reasonable prices. I did see another dealer with Trophy Indian Mutiny which rarely happens these days but did not
ask for a price.
Picked up some other odds and ends....Frontline, Morgan and Fusilier.
Seemed like a lot of K&C inventory.
