Boy Tim, you're really rolling out the big guns for this one! Very impressive piece and the tractor is perfect! Very well done!
Tim, Some more lovely collectables on view. That old tin-plate cannon is magical!

Buckets of toys .. what is not to like
Brilliant! Love it.
I do like those toys! And ain't those Britains' Germans pretty, though?
Both cannons are things of beauty, but in different ways.

The Britains artillery set wasn’t cheap but what a delight!

They’re two of my more extravagant acquisitions - nice to get them both in one game.
