Gravitar Reproduction CPOs

The CPOs are available from Archer Maclean for £40 + £7 post to USA 4/5 day service, and additional options like signed-for etc. I know the £/$ rate is against me at the moment, but I have produced these in a very small run but very high quality, and I doubt I'll make a living out of it, so I'll keep my day job for now!
