It's not my wagon but it is for sale. It will not be finished for about six weeks and will be featured on TV 'Inside Out' thanks to John Clayton who arranged it! It may also be featured elsewhere on TV. We are also looking for members of the Gaskin family who knew Tommy Gaskin to be interviewed on TV as well. You can always contact me or John Clayton at the station if you can help. Dont be shy!!

Thankyou Lee and J. Tommy Gaskin is more famous to me that Ronnie Wood or the Beatles! I think his work was wonderful, and his painting is my biggest inspiration, and influence. I am starting on another Gaskin wagon next month. Lee I will gladly help you with your painting. If you email me via sales@gypsy-wagons.com I will give you a ring. Thank you both for your kind comments.
