  7. Excellent collection. I enjoyed browsing through it. Is there any particular reason why you focused on George V? Or is it just a small part of your collection you chose to exhibit.

    1. Thanks Bhai for your query! Actually, my grandfather (1911) and my father (1935) were born in his era. Moeover, any items from his time, I can tell my kids its almost or more than 100 years old. 100 years sound good. Its hard to find diverse items from Victorian era.
