Interesting shot of a fearful load of these ~
yes millions made in WW1 and yet more made
before WW2 ! Could there ever be a shortage of these ?
I think not. By chance if any one has a couple of spare
late Desmaresk fuzes for 37 - 38 , the dates are stencilled
on rather than stamped.

Nice photo. The tank is a French Renault R-35; the other option being the Hotchkiss H-35. The single bogie wheel next to the front idler wheel is the main visual recognition feature. I am a fan of the early WWII French tanks. We have precious few on this side of the pond.
