MG MGA - 'Old No.1'

Nice ceramic Carlton Ware model of "Old No.1" on US Ebay. The price is quite reasonable at the moment, usually going for about £60 ($100ish) in the UK.

I have a couple in my collection.

This is the other Carlton Ware car; from my collection. It goes for a similar price as the MG. However, one antiques shop down in Stoke has them advertised for £395 ($635)! http://www.burslemantiques.co.uk/content/products.asp?searchtype=by_ItemCategory&searchstr=110&page=1

Hi Steve
It was me! Couldn't resist it. The nice honest American gentleman has even, just now, refunded $8 off the postal costs as he says eBay always over-estimate it. Seems a good guy.

Well done Bruce. I love the 2 models. They look good in the study. I always keep a look out on Ebay, car boots and antique fairs.
