| Indeed a beautiful thing to behold. And if they could talk I bet they have some tales to tell. |

As I said before though Darren - more converts mean more people hunting down these bargains on ebay meaning prices will go up for the ones you want to sell (very good for you) but also on the ones you want to buy (very bad for you lol) Nice set McInnis - I've got a couple of TSL sets as well |

| Salter was one of the first companies to import wooden darts from France in the late nineteenth/early twentieth century primarily for sale to children (!) or to export to the colonies in boxed compendiums of games. (Check out my book DARTS IN ENGLAND 1900-39: A SOCIAL HISTORY (paperback out December £15.99) for more details about TSL and other early companies.) This is another company that seem to be becoming more collectable by the minute! |
