David...… They started to show up within a couple of days after the DNW and Spink's sale all with the same seller.... Mike

Hi David, so the last one is Fairlamb. I sold this through DNW for £ 263 very recently. Maybe I should have held on to it and sold it through eBay if it can go for that much!!!

Cheers
