    Beautiful photos and it was fun to see the Kiwi contingent too!

    With regard to the Lionel Richardson collection to our knowledge Mrs.Richardson didn’t sell off the collection to any one person but sold only the odd block to a few folk. We believe after her husband’s death she issued a small list for a year or two and then we think the collection just fizzled out.
