1991 Sidney Clark Wanderlodge

[David Brady]

Hi Mike,

I really appreciate your reply. My wife and I were quite startled
to stumble upon a late model Royale Prevost conversion, circa
1998 with our interior. And I do mean an exact replica. The
identical details include: the sconces in the lounge, the design
in the etched glass in the gally, the diamond seat backs in the
dinette, the latch and cabinet handle hardware, the multi-level
corian galley counter tops with brass inlay, the deep lush cherry
cabinetry, complete with neo-classical columns and dentils. The
list goes on. It would have been a monumental effort for someone
to photogragh and document the internals of the Royale coach
to relay the info to BB builders and for them to get it right to
this level of detail. But, I do understand what you are saying
regarding the willingness of BB to build virtually anything the
customer requested. Those were great days indeed!

Thanks again for your reply,
David Brady
