Last set of pictures for today from me.. Thank you all for your positive comments. This week I showed someone for the v first time out of my direct family and this site some of my collection and felt they laughed at me and thought I was crazy for having the collection. It really hurt as my collection is something I am proud of. It has taken quite a long time for me to seek comfortable to share it. Please never be ashamed of your collecting. Something I think I am going to have to get used to. These next pictures are incredibly special. They have never been seen together. The first one by Bryan de Grineau is an original painting. Only 3 artists were allowed to draw. Terence Cuneo, Bryan de Grineau and Feliks Topolksi. The Terence Cunro original and Feliks Topolski original is held in Buckingham Palace Bryan de Grineau original painting owned by me.  A signed Terence Cuneo print   Feliks Topolski Chronicle. Prince Philip commissioned Feliks Topolski to do for Buckinghsm palace.  |

Going through some of my first day covers Daniel I have found 2 copies of this cover. You are welcome to my other copy if you dont have. If any one else wants it you are welcome to have it if Daniel doesn't want it. A lovely souvenir of an amazing scheme set up by an incredible Prince. RIP prince Philip.  Hi Sarah, That's very generous and I'm delighted to accept. I've sent you a message with my details. Your collection is not just extensive but also important. You have many great rare items. Thanks again, Daniel |
