Uploaded files:Quote from Steve on November 8, 2023, 11:16 amThis is stunning piece of Military Postal History. Wow! Wow!
I thought I'd never say 'Wow' again after I used it to describe my admiration for the Springboks' commitment in their three one point Rugby World Cup-winning rugby matches. This deserves a double 'Wow' because it's hit me like a Pieter Steph Du Toit tackle that has sent me flying! What a hit! This is absolutely excellent, Jamie, African history made real and interesting within an attractive and informative lay-out. It's a wonderful tribute to your skills as a designer of postal history displays. Brilliant! I love this sort of material. Keep it coming!!

Quote from Jamie Smith on November 8, 2023, 5:46 pmThanks Steve, I aquired it at the Southern African show on Sunday (while you were inches away from it!). Just shows, if you have the knowledge the items are still out there. As to 'Keep it coming.' I could now do with a loan to pay for it!!!

Quote from Steve on November 9, 2023, 12:07 pmWell, nice as it is I would have left it to someone who collects KUT, like you. I buy only my specific collecting field and while I can admire it I walk past eye candy that winks at me. It is a wonderful cover and we are grateful to you for buying it and showing it to us. If you bought it from the dealer I think you did, I am not surprised you now need a loan. That said, his material is superb. One always pays a price for good stuff, especially when the dealer knows we are in thrall to the history and cannot control our desires to acquire a piece of it.
