Brooklin Closure

I have been advised that from tomorrow, Friday 27th March, Brooklin Models will be closing down, because of coronavirus, for two weeks, after which time, the situation will be re-assessed, unless of course Government instructions dictate otherwise.

Thank you for the news, Mike. As we Americans are also "closing down" on many levels, my heart goes out to Brooklin's fine people. I wish them my best.

Vectis Auctions has also closed fora while, both live auctions and remote bidding.

Big Brooklin Book from Mr. Kuvakas

Since models won't be coming from Brooklin for a while, may I suggest those of you in the States get a copy of Mr. Cappi's massive Brooklin encyclopedia to help get yourself through the duration.

I believe John still has a few copies left, and may be willing/able to ship?
