Dear Collector

Another First Come First Served list of collectibles for immediate sale, with a mixed range of items on offer for your perusal. As usual these are offered “first come, first served”. If you wish to order please do so without delay as many items sell in the first few days. It’s best to email [email protected] or phone 086 8573270 (00353 86 8573270 from UK). If you’d prefer just to receive email notification when list is ready please let me know. (Emails usually go out the evening before catalogues arrive by post, so there’s a slight advantage)

PLEASE NOTE: Due to rising costs, there is now a handling charge of €2 on each item purchased. Because most people order by email or phone I have not included an order form with this list. If you do prefer to send a written order please send details on a plain sheet of paper but bear in mind that many items sell in the first 48 hours.

The complete listing with colour pictures can be viewed at www.collectiblescorner.net
