Ron,

Thanks for the pictures and update on the exhibition.
I think Kubinka also has a Sturmtiger in their collection, but I am not sure. I am certain it would be even harder to get that one to Bovington for an exhibition.

Costs can be enourmous, but I do like the fact that not only famous paintings are travelling the globe for exhibitions, but also tanks and military vehicles.
There is a Vickers tank from the Bovvy collection here on loan in Holland now....a few years ago there was a railway gun from the UK on loan to the Railway museum here in Holland...... Saumur travelled with their Tiger II to a classic car show in Paris last year and to the Montormel memorial with a Panther. Now, the Elefant temporarily returned to Europe from the US!
