Paulo,
If memory serves me correctly, this was not Conte, but was from a Russian maker (not Aeroart). His name escapes me, but he is at the major shows. It was certainly an eye-catching display!

Martyn,
Glad you liked the photos as I was rushing around and had to leave early. If you were guessing I took the RA set home, you are going to be disappointed. I know this may come as a shock to your system, but I had to pass on this artillery set (I know, I know, how could I pass it up given my membership in the school of you can never have enough artillery) I only came upon it after I already purchased some K&C glossy sets, Figarti artillery set and the Trophy West Point set. I had to convince myself that I could let it go and still keep my membership as I had already purchased a Trophy set and a Figarti Artillery set, thereby fulfilling my obligation to fill my Trophy Artillery allotment and walk away. Skewed logic to say the least, but who said this hobby is logical :tongue: My guess is that Al made off with it. So, that is my sad story of the one that got away. There is always a next time :smile2:
