Morris & Forndran appreciation thread

Hi fellas,

I hope this finds everyone well. I have looked and I find copious Simpson, Thater and other brush threads but no MF appreciation threads. I see pics here and there and wanted a thread for you all to showcase your Morris & Forndran collections. I am partial no surprise but I'm looking forward to others prized possessions.

Let's see it guys

Perfect thread and my favorite brush maker.

I look forward to seeing everyone's pics!

Here are most of my beauties...

All of which are currently in my possession.

Circa 2011. All work by Lee. Perfect bulb. Soft tips; strong backbone. Just lovely. This one has a 30mm knot.

I love all of them. However, if one stands out it's certainly the briar beehive. Great collection!

Unfortunately the Morris & Forndran appreciation thread that was around was closed... It has lots of great information in it's pages. 
These are my three favorite M&F brushes.  Labeled Blonde Badger but are filled with Rooney Finest knots.

Unbelievable Nathan. The last one by itself looks like it is made out of a cloud.  That is gorgeous.

Thanks guys, means a lot to me!

I only have one remaining from the many that I have had over the years, but it is one of the most exquisite examples of a beautifully constructed knot and brush.
3XL Tortoise Heritage 2-Band (31x53mm)

Beautiful brushes gentlemen!

Man solid work guys!

I thought about posting my two run of the mill M&F brushes that I've acquired thanks to two gentlemen here at the Nook but after seeing the brushes you all have im put to shame lol. Very nice collections everyone!

These Rooney knots are truly something else.  If they feel and perform half as good as they look aesthetically, they must be outstanding.
