Finally! A new edition of the High End show in Munich!

Alas, HFA won’t be attending. However, I thought it would be nice if I published and continually updated a report of the show based on photos, comments, and other content from friends in the industry who are attending. This way, those who can’t attend can still get something of a good feel for the show!
