Roll up, roll up, buy an entire museum collection
Re: Roll up, roll up, buy an entire museum collection
Hard to see the sense behind this, take from racks in UK to put them on racks in China.

Well,well,well.
We knew that many were going to China, All sorts of museums are popping up there In recents years. There’s even a sample of my work in a musical instrument museum in Shanghai! I hope some of the boats will be restored and properly displayed and perhaps sailed but, unless that’s an old photo, I does seem to be a case of deja vue.
At least a good few of the boats from the auction have stayed in the UK and are getting a quality new life.
