Lady Ferguson Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Mark (OldFord) and myself visited Paul Bitmead and his wife in Herefordshire. He mainly collects lead figures, but he did have a few pieces that may interest you guys. First up - Paul told us that this was the very first model Brian Norman ever did: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Some stunning models he has on show Mandy. Very nice indeed. Particulary like the David Brown and the thatched cottage, that's the cats whiskers. Can I see an MF 390 up there aswell? Can't believe Mark didn't take Ethan along to play with the toys though!! What did you buy then, you can post in Latest Purchases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Nice collection, was he just thinning out a bit? Do you get up this way often? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Ferguson Posted March 10, 2008 Author Share Posted March 10, 2008 Nice collection, was he just thinning out a bit? Do you get up this way often? He's decided to concentrate on his lead layouts and the few older tractors he had with them, Simon - so he wanted to get rid of all his boxed tractors and machinery It's the first time I've been to Hereford - it's not far though and an easy enough drive.
