Picked this up today with the other one in Projectiles (I paid too much for it , the real one and likely the bugger will have the fuze next week), from the weekly Sunday Antique (and mounds of crap) market.
From an old tight Irishman who wouldn't give an inch so I paid his $150 Cdn for this. :xd:
This isn't real Trench Art as it's a full blown commercial item using a real surplus casing, which sometimes have the original markings as well.
These are around and seem to bring stupid money sometimes, so another 18pr type ~ The case is real,
unmarked so I guess end of war.
I'm missing the glasses from the rack - which I show from another one on the net.
