The Queen Mine, still remember the first time I saw this in Bills back room, along with most of the rest of the pockets best ones. I was not much older then you are now at the time. Great picture by the way since the lighting is not the greatest in this case. Keep up the collecting we need more young folks to keep the hobbie alive.
