Hi Barry,

May I take this opportunity to welcome to Hobby Talk. Yours is a very good question.

The easiest way that I can answer it is invite you to MCCH (The Matchbox Collectors' Community Hall).

You will find a world of information there and lots and lots of great people as you have done here on Hobby Talk. Please take some time and look these links over and I do believe you can get the needed information that you seek... Olesarge90/GIll
