Happy Thanks Giving to y'all,
I'll second what Philippe has to say !! Wills Finecast has had a
very good reputation in the UK for many years. What with £/$ ratio
well in your favour these days it would be a good time for your
partners to buy lots of Christmas stocking fillers !!! <VBG>

1/72 is pretty

sheets/pack 5 5/16 X

euros some

also some
