S is for Saunders . . . Roger Saunders

I hadn't heard of these until a few weeks ago, and I have nothing on them in the archive, so another "Thank you" to Jon Attwood for this submission, and consequently there's not a lot I can say about them, beyond what you see here, with your own eyes! Which is, a couple of railway modelling review articles and an example of packaging, but it gets them up, Tag-listed and box-ticked!


Jon wrote "Roger Saunders is a well known name in the model soldier world and has a write-up in Garrett. So just a pic of the only rail set I have been able to find so far, and a couple of reviews from 1984 & 1985 Railway Modeller magazine.", and I have found and re-read the Garrett entry (pp. 149), which points out he produced sculpts for most of the 54mm solid metal kit makers/advertisers in Military Modelling in the late 1970's/early 1980's!
 

And having read-up on Pendon Museum, which I was living near-to, for several years (!), I think I'd better get my arse over there as soon as I can? Cheers Jon, a couple of rabbit-holes to crawl down there!
