Hi George, I do still have the NGs 1905 to 1951, but shipping to the UK would be hugely expensive and time-consuming to package up, not to mention the risk of damage from shipping such a long distance. I'd prefer an in person pickup, especially of the older ones so the buyer knows what they're getting.

NG issues are not in the best condition. I will check on postage. If not too much I will send to you. Address? We can discuss postage later. August 20 October 17
