Jacques M. Littlefield had a famous collection and he personally displayed them on History Channel or other television documentaries. Unfortunately Jacques passed away a few years ago and it appears whomever inherited his estate wants to cash-out his collection. Or maybe they are just liquidating a portion of his collection. I believe he had much more than what is being auctioned. Probably his estate trustees already cherry-picked the most valuable collections and these are the leftovers. Jacques as I recall purchased a Panther that got stuck in in river in Poland and he spent a lot of time restoring it to pristine condition. The Panther does not appear in the auction.
I had planned on registering to visit the museum but sounds like they will shut it down. |

When I saw this on Fox News I could make out a Panther in the background. So saying that you believe they are liquidating a portion of the collection makes more sense. |

I know how you feel. I got a mass media on my side and I will buy a tank soon. |

Cant believe a Pz IV is $1.7 mil, most of the Shermans are around $300 K , must be the rarity of German armour that raises the price. |
