WOW! I like Buses but glad I am not an avid collector seeing all those I would have to chase

Ghosty.

jan 26th I was at a Belgium swap meet and afterwards I went on a visit to 1 of the biggest Matchbox collections in Belgium (which was on walking distance of the swap meet venue)

This really is an amazing collection.
I only saw it more then 15 years ago when the oner was in a different house,
Nowerdays he has more room for it.

1 of the great models I saw was this GREEN version of the Neal's Toys & Prams (promo)
He had 1 in his cabinets with a note from the original owner of the model (who made the promo) that a few of these green models were made but the red one was choosen.

The Belgium collector surpriced me after seeing my enthusiasm for this model by getting a 2nd example of this rare version from 1 of his many cabinets which he gave to me as a gift.

I used to visit that toy shop in Milton Meynes during my quest for Rolls-Royce toys.
