Acknowledgement and Reference page
This article was born out of my research work into the battle of Cholm but
could never be written without the generous support from many collectors from
around the world, who allowed me either to make use of their treasures or who
generously helped me in my search towards good reference material. It is
possible that updates become necessarily as new info comes available.
Therefore I would like to thank the following individuals : Broadhurst Grant,
Calero Jaques, Charita Josef, Farré Angel, Gene, Heukemes Frank, Jewison Ian
,Komiya Akira, Polux, Saez Francois, Stahl Eric, Spiller Walter , Takiguchi
Akira , Williamson Gordon , Winkler Kai, and many other anonymous collectors .
