Thanks everyone!!

I'm already there Dave. I guess I'm in the analytical stage now, comparing it with my photo library and taking a million photos.....

Craig,

Fantastic, just beautiful! Congratulations to you.

Now, show us what else is in that case. Never forget the little people!!

Beautiful cross, congrats!!!

Well done Craig, it is a fabulous set-up!

I am especially interested in the case. I have 2 cased K&Qs, and in both the cases are slightly 'warped'. The cases do sit quite flat on a level surfars and rock a bit. The lids are slightly 'bowed' upwards. I suppose it is the wood in the case drying out and warping a little over the years. Does your case feature this??

Best,

Nice acquisition! And looks great rounding out the cased EK 1 & 2 in the display.

Thanks Jim! Well I plan to post pics of my collection probably in a few months, once I have swapped a few items around. It isn't a big collection as I have only been re-collecting in the last 2 1/2 years, having previously sold my collection before moving abroad. How could anyone forget the little people.

Craig,

Hi Harry,

Thanks, I wish I had the cardboard carton with mine, I'm envious of yours. I'll have a look for you when I get home (still at work) and post some pics for you.

Thanks, the gap between the EkII and EKII had been there too long, i'm glad it has finally been filled.

Nice acquisition! And looks great rounding out the cased EK 1 & 2 in the display.

Don't be ashamed to wear out that hinge/clasp...I only have a repro and I find myself staring stupidly at it from time to time...congrats! Can I safely say that no one is getting a Christmas gift from you this year $$$ ?

No that's not true, I found some truly wonderful items for people in the charity shops this year.

Thanks Tom, Chris, Marc, she's a beauty.... The first of many hopefully, I'll keep you posted.

Harry, I haven't forgotten about you, I just haven't had a daylight opportunity to take some pics, I will tomorrow morning.
