I've put a new sign on the post office. The painting of the windows varies a bit on the buildings, and they've been rather mean on this example with only the door and post box (just about) touched in. At least the post box means that owners don't feel obliged to buy a separate pillar box to accompany the building!

Thanks for the link. I visited the Brighton Toy Museum last year and really enjoyed it. Among their numerous exhibits they had an amazing Spot-On display.

As far a I remember, it's a single owner collection. I've not been there for years, but it's a good place to visit. Not a lot of Matchbox though.
