Hi guys, I thought it would be funny to share a few pictures with you . They were taken on our local yearly garage sale last week. Among the junk I was selling was quite a lot of militaria. On the picture I can see at least 8 items. The fist one who finds them all gets a little surprise!
I spotted two Canteens including the odd-looking one you recently posted. Also, I saw what loks like either trench art (arty shell with jagged edgs at top) which I guess could be used as a vase-or ashtray etc. My eyes aint good enough to see anything else ;-)) Oh and, hope you sold alll of your stuff-that way you have more money for more Militaia ;-))
Okay, I grant two canteens (French and U.S. , both WWI) and the trench art 75er shell, that makes 3. 5 more to go
Ill trylooking more but can't guarente ill find more. However, I do like this as something that maybe you can do more often by having members search for stuff ;-))
Cheers Carl, if you look close enough you will find a few other ones. Glad you like the little game, after a while I might give you a hint or two
you said the word. Not only was I forced to change that damn thing because Mrs Skipper found one that is as large a my car, or almost, but she told me not to throw it away , just in case some guy would give us a few Euros for it...... As a result I have the damn thing in the garden and will have to bring it to the recycling center myself, but who am I when Mrs skipper mentions the sink?
I see Eva Braun's Tea Pot, three vials of Hitler's urine samples, Bormann's Foosball table and finally Hoffman's Camera with film in it of Eva's boudoir pics. Where's my prize
okay I see two canteens a 50.cal shell casing and what looks like two broken shell casings of the 20mm and heavier variety and I can swear I see a canteen cup hiding in there and now I can say this it looks like theres a third canteen in there and thats all I can spot right now and I think I also see those pins skipper posted in the militaria section in the case with the clear plastic top
Nope, Okay, I will give you a few hints: 1) there is a third canteen 2) there is one item on the floor. 3) there are two next to the trench art shell.
2) there is one item on the floor - artillery range finder (German?) 3) there are two next to the trench art shell - .50 cal(?) case Steve W.
it's a German 1938 20 mm , but okay you have that one , I grant you the other one too which is the lower part of a French 1937 37mm case. The item on the floor is right next to the table football. One more hint: one item is DAK and it's on the table. that's two more ! You have found 5 alltogether. three to go
Very easy - the sink unit came from the Berghof ; I'm sure I've seen a photo somewhere of Eva Braun washing up the tea things in it. And the table-top football game was liberated from Carinhall by a Red Army soldier who sold it after the fall of the Berlin Wall. When not playing with his train set, Goering was known to relax over a table-top soccer match with Luftwaffe ace Hermann Graf. Now, as for the last item...hmmmmm.......
The only ones who are not serious about my game are the mods, makes me wonder ...... Yes there is a green helmet hidden on the floor, it's a m-1951 French Indochina model, it almost looks like a U.S. helmet but it is a bit bigger. Okay: two to go including the third canteen.
Rep points, salutes, or possibly my eternal gratitude for your patriotism , but you know what they say about people who ask
