Yes that's right Fritz, the price of the bullet pencil is crazy. I did find the Christmas card, but marys photo was glued to the back of it., so have just left for now.

Got this in the post today, as you can see it's a princess Mary tin, sadly no contents included . But looks nice displayed along side the death plaque.

Thank for doing that Leon, I will print a copy off to keep with it

I can make out a W , but not the A.

The ww2 medals have no connection, I just dont have another case for them yet, will wait till l have more stars before buying another, the items are only laying in the case as its laying flat. Yea I have sen the plaques with hols in, seen o ne with a hanging chain when searching for one, I am also going to get the princess Mary Christmas tin to put in the case.

Got this new item today, as you can see it's a ww1 death memorial plaque to Thomas Cram from Tillicoultry. i remember picking these up for around a £1 or less in the barras , pity those days are long gone.

I have the binocular case a clean up, it revealed something scratched into the lid, or it looks like FOURNIER , PARIS , METROPAX then the number under the handle 399444. Just googled it , it's a maker of French binoculars, most likely the original occupant of the case.

Don't get me wrong, thete was some cracking stuff, but also other not so ! Here are the busts in question.

It was discussed on several forums & people better versed than me spotted some fake items among the hoard, including that other statue i have. Have you ever seen one of these before? Looks strange to me

Yes its definitely post war, probably made a fortnight ago lol , sold as repro and only payed £30 for it Here is one that was among that so called hoard of illegal nazi memorabilia that was found in Argentina last year, it's in the same form , but with a marble base , most of the stuff was repro.

I think its brass with a bronze wash or plating , its rubbed of a little on high points

I forgot to put this text in lol. I picked this up at an antique fair yesterday, there ain't a lot of age to it, but I have been after one for a while,

Those are very nice indeed ,I have been after a nice war time pair for a while now & stumbled upon these yesterday just by chance, do you know if these whould come in a leather or webbing case ?

I picked these up yesterday on a local FB selling page! As you can see they are a British pair of binoculars , they where manufactured by Kershaw & are dated 1943, they still have the original webbing neck strap fitted, also came with a leather case that's seen better days, but still hanging in there.

Yes they are folded just so as to hide the inperfaction , someone had fired paper staples through them making holes & runs in the material, 3 staples in each for some reason
