  1. Hi there –

    Thanks for commenting!
    Yes, after all these years its amazing how these things surface. These pics were part of a larger set as I mentioned that had been broken up to sell as individual lots. So lucky my 11th hour offer for the set was accepted otherwise chances are these amazing images would never have been published.
    I’m glad you like them 🙂

    I’m sure it has plenty to see in its own right, ha.
