Noor Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Hi all, I am just in the middle of clearing my boxes and next set of medals that I am planning to let go are these lovely minis below.

Noor Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 Perhaps this helps. So, Spencer & Co. .... is it the same what we know as a Marks & Spencer now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
