New haul arrived today

[Dansson]

He has not stopped collecting just moved to another subject,The Napoleonic period,he's already shown me a few of his pieces that he has acquired,mind blowing is an understatment,especially the French musket taken at Waterloo. He's also building a rather nice collection (models) figures and busts of that time period.Beautiful work he's done on them.
Cheers

I see. I only knew him via our mutual interest towards awards. Last thing I saw him have was a Waterloo medal, but that was years ago. I assumed he stopped as he went se quiet and begun to sell and offer his collection for sale.
That explains a bit, Good to hear he's still in

Yes i've seen the cased Waterloo medal,very nice it is too.I presume he met a fork in the road and decided to take a different route,i haven' really discussed it with him TBF but I know he is also helping out his Son to get established on the property ladder..

Nice haul and very well framed items, hard to get any better than that.

Fantastic haul Bob!!

The framing work really puts it all over the top. I have to do what little I can myself because professional framing and matting would eat way too far into my budget for the actual pieces.

Just a wonderful score. Sounds like you and your friend were able to mutually help each other out as he changes collecting focus and you get some wonderful material.

Hi Todd,
Yes wickedly expensive way to go,personally i'd have just framed the Kradmelder grouping as it has everything,name,photo ,docs and awards but as he said he just couldn't help himself,I think the framing work cost £1700 you could buy some nice items for the collection for that money.
We actually met on facebook ,I didn't know him before,he'd messaged me about buying the collection in its entirety but it was a no go for me at the time.
These frames will be sold off with the contents....
Cheers
Bob
