Well, now I'm glad I sold it because it would have been underwater with the rest of my POTA collection otherwise!

I had it all at Neil's, and they are predicting Neil's place will be completely underwater in about 4 hours.

I'll miss my collection, but I feel worse for Neil.

I helped him get as much as we could so if you pray, please spare Neil (and my POTA collection!) a thought….

It was Zira, Cornelius, Bill, Jeff looking at a map I think. It was quite valuable as it was one of VERY few with the genuine original hand-painted background (which was definitely used over).

Thanks Jeff – shall do.

When I was last there to get Neil and his wife out, the river had risen to swallow Neil's driveway so I parked next door and I had about 10 minutes before I had to move the car. As you say – all we could do was watch.
