A wooden Churchill tank and transporter. Not to the same scale as the Lee but still very impressive.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Romans a few years ago and got a good look at "Lulubelle." Photos cannot convey the level of authenticity of this 1:1 scale, wooden replica. When I saw "Lulubelle" her interior was unfinished, and Mr. Romans was uncertain whether he was going to try to tackle that job!

It was several years ago that George's 'AFV News' journal had an article on Mr. Roman's Lulubelle! It was an interesting read. Funny how when you build something 1:1 scale using original blueprints the thing tends to look authentic Rolling Eyes
