Thank you for your continued fine
service. I must say you provide the best service of any
company in Europe or the United States for anything
shipped.
Mr. B.W.M, Jeloy, Norway
Enclosed please find my balance
owed. You’re great to do business with.
Mrs. H.K., West Framington, OH
I too, am trying to re-capture my
youth, and to share it with my young son. As memory
serves me, there was no finer way to spend my time, then
with my toy soldiers. They are now long gone, as are my
old molds, but if a chance arises, I will grasp it
tightly, and hold on dearly forever.
J.J.D., Jr. Ridgeley, W.VA
Here’s the mold I owe you. I
really appreciate your fast service, I expected a hassle
when I had to return it. It’s a pleasant surprise to
find there are still competent and courteous people
around. Your molds produce beautiful and accurate
figures. I hope eventually to own your complete line.
Mr. K.F.R., Clementon, N.J.
All of you at Castings seem to
know your business thoroughly and are a shining example
to all of us amateurs. And now to work, hours,
weeks and months of it. I am grateful to you all.
Mr. A.B. St.David, Bermuda
I received my order here today and
I am so pleased with your outstanding service and
handling of this recent order that I just half to
put in another larger order if for no other reason than
appreciation. I am highly pleased with you good folks.
I give you a Big "Q" for quality and a Big "E" for
efficiency.
Mr. D.M.R., Phoenix, AZ.
I love pewter and the molds you
offer are so beautiful and outstanding. So whenever you
have a new series of pewter molds please send me a
brochure showing them. Also, I want to mention you have
excellent shipping time.
Mrs. D.S., Harrisburg, IL
I am really excited about this new
hobby you have helped me discover and the possible
aspects I may receive from doing this type thing. What a
magnificent way to make some extra money creating
something that is fun, exciting and artistically
rewarding. Why the possibilities are endless. I want to
thank you for sharing your hobby with me.
I look forward to many years of doing business with your
company.
J.D.W., Ft. Walton Beach, FL
It’s a real pleasure doing
business with a company that stands by its product.
D.M.W., New Haven, OH
Recently I purchased your starter
kit. I have received it and am pleased with my new
hobby. Thank you for providing me with a wonderful
opportunity to spend my free time in a creative manner
and to also make a little bit of extra spending money on
the side.
M.W.S., Esquire, Indianapolis, IN
I want to send these molds to my
fiancè
Frank for his birthday.
He told me this is all he wants for his birthday.
Ms. C.F., Middlesboro, MN
I generally do not write letters
of Thanks for purchases made through a mail order
catalog. However, I was very pleased at the prompt
delivery of my casting set and molds, and quickly
discovered that everything worked great. The miniatures
which I cast with your molds came out looking great when
painted and made excellent Christmas gifts.
E.A.B., Covina, CA
Since receiving my first molds
about three weeks ago I have cast over two hundred
figures.
I am thrilled with my new hobby.
M.C., Hebron, IN
I look forward to spending time
this winter CASTING an army that can be used to "battle"
my brother’s lead soldiers. When we were kids in the
forties and early fifties we used your mold #5264 to
cast some 1200 figures so my job is to create a new army
to defeat that one. Many thanks for being there for
"kids" who are 50 but can still play with toy soldiers
between financial broadcasts.
N.Y. Financial Talk Show Host
May I close by saying, I find your
castings a great hobby. I give your finished product as
Christmas gifts, as well as birthdays and special
occasions. My family and friends seem to cherish these
gifts more because, I’ve taken the time to cast and
paint them. Again, thanks for the many hours of
pleasure, in both making the
figures and seeing the happy faces when they are
received.
P.A.S., Woonsocket, R.I.
Thank you very much for not
carrying an inferior product. I want to express
satisfaction with your rubber molds, especially the "War
Between the States" Molds. The detail is truly exquisite
and the figures created are truly showpieces. I for one
will continue to patronize you for your quality
merchandise and excellent service.
M.I., Raleigh, NC
Thank you so much for your prompt
service. I really appreciate the postage paid, return
envelope you supplied for returning my defective mold.
Your service is above the norm and so refreshing. I’m
sure I’ll be doing more business with you in the future.
D.S., Enfield, CT
I want to thank you for your
kindness in supplying exactly what I needed to make use
of the metal mold I had received as a gift. Of the dozen
or so companies I deal with on a fairly regular basis
Castings has consistently been the most considerate
and helpful. Even if your products were not high quality
and dependable I would still continue to recommend them
to my fellow amateur craftsmen because of your way of
doing business.
F.W. Hopkinsville, KY
A short note with this order to
thank you for the excellent service I’ve received from
your company. Over the years I’ve done a lot of mail
order business with many companies and yours is by far
the best. Most orders I send to you by mail on Monday
are on my door steps by Friday.
O.B., St. Louis, MO
I am most excited at the thoughts
of a casting set for my husband to make soldiers for our
children (boys ages 7 & 9). Years ago my Dad borrowed a
mold and cast 3" high lead soldiers. We had hours of fun
with them. Maybe it’s really Mom that wants the casting
set but most of all I’d like our children to share the
happy times I had as a child.
Mrs. S.F. Lewiston, N.Y.
I not only had a casting set when
I was a boy in the 1930’s but I later replaced the lost
and molds for my 2 son’s in the 50’s. That set too is
gone. Now I have 2 young grandsons and am delighted to
find my old friends again.
E.B., Houston, TX
I can’t tell you high delighted I
am with your "adult toys". I was given some of your
equipment by my teenage boy for Christmas and it has
absolutely returned me to my former childhood joys of
casting lead soldiers.
J.H.W, M.D. Brainerd, MN
Having a wonderful time. Thank you
for the enjoyment you have given me in my spare time, as
it keeps my mind off my other troubles. Love you all!
K.A., Carlisle, PA
I have just finished the
Napoleonic figure molds that I ordered from your company
last month. I want you to know that I have not enjoyed
anything so much for some time. My wife
and family see them as miniature works of art, which
makes me very proud since I have never been able to draw
a straight line before.
