A box arrives from the Netherlands

A box arrives from the Netherlands that I have been waiting for around a touch over three weeks. I'd like to thank Walter for
his help in facilitating this purchase 🙂 and all the emails back and forth with Walters fountain of knowledge.

Ooooooooh what a DOLL ..... She's real purdy!!!

Just gotta love the old German overtypes, and that truly is a prime example.

I have a J. Falk that looks almost identical, but sans burner (darn it), and not in such immaculate condition as your new addition.

WONDERFUL

A wonderful very well preserved Engine Jim.

And I really liked your picture sequence on the unboxing.

Well done! 👏👏👏👏👏
