Hi! Today is my 20th Birthday and here is what I gave to myself:
I managed to find a SF Rescue Set were my Renault 17tl with 'fire' labels originally belongs to. The Set included a standart Renault so I was able to just switch them.
I finally found a orange tipper in reasonable condition and a two tone Cresta in ... Condition. It came with a second Cresta.
Have a nice Weekend,
Linus

I'm sorry Linus, it's not your Birthday today, you must be mistaken, it does not show on our index page, however, you have got yourself a nice hard to find set and more Cresta models we do love on the forum.
P.S. just in case we are wrong, have a very Happy Birthday!
Ghosty.

Thank you all for your kind words guys!
Ghosty I think I forgot to endorse this by my registration, I will add this info soon
Perfectly timed a toyshow followed my birthday on Saturday and I had the pleasure meeting Kay there.
He had some nice items for me, so I bought a 1966 (issued) USA Carry case, a 1979 dealer catalog and a nice RW Mercedes 220 SE from him.
Other finds were a Rolamatics Beach hopper with yellow interior, a Motorcycle trailer with pink Honda and a King Size Cat.
Greetings,
Linus

That's alright Linus, I'll keep the registration date open for another Week...
Now then, you did do well for Birthday presents with some additional rather tasty Matchbox items, love the carry case and some nice excellent condition models, but I have not seen the 1979 trade catalogue before, any chance we can see inside, I would like to see whats on the 'Yesteryears' page if that possible, thank's.
