No impersonal 'shopping basket' system here. I prefer to do all this personally by email.

 

 

ALSO  PLEASE NOTE

There are hardly any items for sale beyond page 29 on the gallery here.

I have left so many sold items on show (and in the sold archive) as many collectors have said they find such photos and information useful to have.
