Thanks for the info, Paul. Previous Message
In 1993 I bought most of Cy’s collection, around 300 models. Over time I have sold a few. During his lifetime Cy made some models that he sold to other collectors (before I bought his collection). I know at least one collector who got a couple of his models before I bought the collection. Cy kept one model, and after his death I inquired about it. I was told that the family wanted to keep it.
Cy did not scratch build models en masse for sale like Ed Antin, Ron Hughes, and some others did. He built almost exclusively for his own collection. Previous Message
In the string below, Paul mentions that Cy Broman made a lot of scratch-built 1/1200s. I am, thanks to the generosity of a well-known member of our community, an owner of two of them. My question is where are all the others? All still in collectors hands? Lost to the mists of time? I'd be interested to know.
