This set is a follow-up
from Toro's previous set of Polish 2nd Corps Shermans
from over five years ago. Again, the majority of the
markings in this set are for tanks that took part in the
victory parade in Loreto, Italy, after the war was over.
I guess that reference material showing the markings of
wartime tanks in the 2nd Polish Corps is probably hard to
find, so instead we get markings for seemingly most every
tank that took part in the Loreto parade. But aside from
that minor complaint, these decals look superb, with very
clear and crisp printing, thin carrier film, good colors
and excellent registration. Large, full-color marking guides for this
set can be found at: http://www.toro-model.com.pl/pliki/72d24e.htm
