Same to you, 'Nando, and to all of our Forumites.

Happy Holidays and New Years. The question is, will Santa bring you a sword or a lump of coal for Xmas-

They should have been but fortunately I found them for the proverbial song at an estate sale. Once in a while you get lucky.

Hi Guys

This year’s Christmas photo attached. Happy collecting in 2013, and let’s hope the world economy improves so we can all buy more swords and stuff

Cheers Rex and Cathey

Hi,

After expressing my good wishes in the Ethnographic forum's Christmas thread, I completely overlooked this one, something for which I sincerely apologize.

So, I wish everybody here all the very best for the festive season, a belated Merry Christmas and a Happy and prosperous New Year and may all our desires for more collectible acquisitions come true in 2013!

Cheers
Chris
