That wasn't a bad price to pay for the card but I was not the buyer. My collection of these cards is purely digital.

I notice that Christian Beyers seems to have been far too busy in the Zoutpansberg, doubtless, expending a horrendous amount of expanding ammunition to even think about a getting portrait!

Frank,

I hadn't given any thought to the men not listed in the series and wonder know what criteria was used to choose them?

Our digital collection is coming along. Here is no 15, General Erasmus.

Hello David,
I think you had to be "up there" already, people like Beyers and Maritz were yet to make a name for themselves, of course it did not take them too long, moreover, afterwards they became notorious after their complete and utter betrayal of the Union!
Kind regards Frank

Piet Cronje's card to add to the set. We now have 55% of the cards so a few still to go!
