Lynn Sangster of Historex just passed away.

[bob letterman]

I just heard from Ken jones that Lynn Sangster, owner of Historex models in England and the co-producer of the Euromilitaire exposition has just passed away. I knew Lynn since the 1970s. Back in 1986, Lynn and Ray Lamb, the owner of the prestigious figure company, Poste Militaire, partnered to create the Euromilitaire, the most prestigious figure show in all of Europe. I attended the first 7 shows.

I know people say these things about those who pass, but Lynn Sangster was the most honest, the most dignified and charismatic man I ever knew. His humility was striking. There will never be another man like him come our way for many moons. He will be sorely missed. Lynn was in his 80s. His son now runs the business.

Rest in Peace my friend,

Bob Letterman

Fair winds, Lynn Sangster, and calm waters.

While I can't say I knew Mr Sangster, I did deal with Historex for years as retailer of Hornet and they were impeccable in service to the modeling community.

RIP.
