Fergus has been a great help to me over the past few years, and I am so very glad that he found this forum and shared a small portion of his collection with us.

I don't mean to put you on the spot Ferg...but your knowledge and friendship to me is priceless, and I trust your insight more than anyone else I know in this collecting area.

Now, to intentionally sound like a broken record...unbelievably stellar collection of rarities.
