I met, and spent a few hours, with Robert Holmes a Court in the early 80's, and then I thought he was like 70 years old (well I was in my teens), so was shocked to now read he died so young! I was already collecting then - small scale - and was also surprised to read that he had these stashed away! I was impressed that for all his $ was a very down to earth.
Congratulations, some great machines, and at fairly reasonable prices (sorry, I looked!)

A good friend has three different models of buddha style machines.

Re: 9 new toys
Sorry, a bit of trivia I read this weekend
Guess from whom Michael Jackson bought the Beatles catalog ........
http://wn.com/Robert_Holmes_%C3%A0_Court
Gives your machines an even better provenance
