Some New Additions

Post by hydra427 »

Here are a few new additions. Some upgrades to models I already have. A few of these are from the "Millstream Matchbox Archive" as it is being called. Looking forward to hitting some shows this fall and see what else I can end up with.

These first 7 models are all from the "Millstream" collection.

The boxes are so clean and crisp they don't look real. Great score, well done.

That was my thought too. They are beauties and it's hard to believe they were made all those years ago. Great additions!

John,very impressed with your photos of the Millstream models and the other you posted.
Seeing the quality of the Millstream Archive models I decided to treat myself.
Completed the order today (Tom @ Millstream was very helpful) and looking forward to receiving the order.
Ordered:
#17 Metropolitan Taxi
#53 Aston Martin
#69 Commer 30 Van

Will be "bargain bin" searching for a while but hopefully worth it.
