Hello Swabbies - Did you miss me? I have been traveling the Seven Seas, the South Sea, the North Sea and of course the Sargasso Sea!! Well Pollywogs it was a interesting trip of course being with Commodore Wilkes on his South Seas Expedition! Well in looking back in 2022 you shellbacks were so fortunate!! Selling out of the "Old Time Ship Collection" you shipmen were able to pickup over 25 Bassett Lowke models, 25 Bronzart models, 25 1:500 Comet models and 25 1:500 Framburg models! No telling how many odd 1:1200 ships and 1:500 ships and subs! Yikes no other person on the seven seas, plant or universe ever put that many unbelievable ship models on ebay in such a short period of time - YOU LUCKY SEA DOGS! Well it is 2023 and why not sell some more models out of the OLD TIME SHIP COLLECTION!
