One cannot do much with all the monies in this world but can do much more if he strives toward contentment.

Very nice find Numi, great condition and up to your usual high standards - the hymn is a bit disconcerting though :D

There's absolutely no need to apologise Numi, I was only joking too because these rare little beauties are hunted out with such certainty and attracted to you and Jason in a way that I only aspire to (does that make sense?) :D

Please use a web hosting site (like photobucket) to store pictures so you can post them here, using attachments makes it hard to view the pictures when you have to scroll to see them. Seeing comparisons of models is hard to see with attachments too.

That is a n great model Dan, since I found my one I have seen others. Strange how they all come out of the woodwork once you find one. J
