It is fair to say, you may see here, in the gallery and shop, wondrous and magical historical pieces you may have never seen the like of before, and may never see again, outside of a first division museum. Such as The Tower of London, The British Museum, The National Army Museum or maybe even Les Invalides in Paris, except, unlike viewing them in fine and exclusive museum,… ours are all for sale!
