Re: Captain Sir Tom Moore.

It was his way of saying thankyou , his choice, not necessary, and the choice of people to give.
Well done to all of them.

Re: From my childhood...

The grille would be the same as the painted issue black.
The wooden box you have is on one of the harder boxes to find and is known as a coral box.
I have about ten of these models still boxed on ashtrays , steel trays and boxes and all have black grilles.

Re: Checking up on a deal I was offered

I have seen these sell for as low as £25 in the UK but then of course you would have to add the shipping fee.
It seems these sets are listed all the time on Ebay so watch and wait, just make sure it comes with all the paper work and the box key.
