Tulsa Swap Meet

[Guy]

I just got back from Tulsa where the www.hmsneo.org sponsored their annual "Swap Meet".. The host was Mike Davidson and the place was "The Hussar" in Tulsa, Oklahoma
The club membership turned out for this even where kits were selling for a dollar and up. I met Anders and John Long there and beleive me............their work in "The Flesh" was 20 times better looking than the pictures they post here. My hat is off to Anders for the work he brought with him as it was Outstanding.......The flesh tones you see him post do not give him credit. Absolutely Beautiful Anders!!!!

I got a chance to see John Longs' Indian Vignette...........couldn't take my eyes off of it and it was the center of attention in the showroom.

I picked up another Celtic Vignette, 54mm by Jaguar, for $3.oo and a Poste Militaire McBeth for 5 dollars. whew...........was there ever some good buys there. A great bunch of miniaturist gather in Tulsa everymonth and they knew how to show we were welcome.

Thanks Mike, for a great evening.

Hey Guy!

Was great seeing you! Thanks for the kind words on my figs

As far as kits, well, I really thought the point of a swap meet was to get RID of stuff instead of gaining, I gained about 6-7 figures! Good prices though!

Funny you guys had your swap meet yesterday. SCAHMS had their annual "auction" last night. Members donate unwanted kits to the club for auction, with all proceeds going to the club (great idea, if you ask me). There were some really good bargains to be had. I managed to pick up Pegaso's 90mm Arminius vignette for $35.

I think the MMSI has plans to hold an auction in May. With the possibility of good deals like you guys mention, I may have to brave the Chicago traffic & pay a visit with a few of my favorite presidents , unless Harry S has other plans that weekend <_< .
