[WWI] Americal Gryphon Decals?

[Frederick Miles]

I had talked to the owner just a month before he went out of business and ordered as much 1/32 as I could afford and got most of what I ordered.  I only wished he hadn't run out of inside lozenges.  I really hope someone re-releases his line or comes out with a comparable line.  Spada shows potential.  Goaw
