Nationernes Gade matchbox series

Ok, they said it couldn't be done, but here are the first four, as follows:
1. Italien
2. Holland
3. Kina
4. Norge

They've been cobbled together from a number of sources and I did what I could to make them roughly similar color- and size-wise. Any feedback on any further adjustments to improve them is welcome.

Wow! On some of these that I found, they were almost black and white. Outstanding job on generating colors on these and getting those colors to look like they go together as a set, which they are.


Thank you

Many thanks, Tom, these will be great fun. You did a fine job getting an excellent colour, size, and quality of these old models.
