Dave Ryan of Caliver Books writes:

Duncan left his figure and book collection to Daniel Faulconbridge at Wargames Illustrated. Dan has generously offered the cream of the collection for sale in aid of the Gurkha Welfare Trust, and for our part, the Caliver Books team have volunteered to do the footslog of listing. Over the next several weeks, all the secondhand books listed and sent out on the Caliver mailing list, and then later posted on Facebook, will be from Duncan's Collection. It's a chance for those of you who knew of him to own a piece of wargames history and do your bit for the charity.

We have a couple of new items:
