I am searching for a picture of one of these: they were bright yellow with the words DANGER DO NOT TOUCH! on them. On the top was a circular ring that tilted over to hit the detonator as well as a firing plunger sticking out of the top. The bomb was cylindrical in shape, 4 inches tall with a diameter of 2 1/4 inches. Toward the upper end is a milled collar covered by a skeleton firing lever.
They were atached to a small hydrogen balloon and released as part if the fatefull Free Balloon barrage so beloved of Churchill.
Any ideas or help appreciated.
