Hi, here is something interesting I saw, and unfortunately got out bid on it. I would have liked for my collection. I have never seen another.
It appears to either be a master mold for the casting process, or are completed grenade bodies that have been cast, and not cut and separatated yet.
I am not sure of the methods used for casting US pineapple bodies, but was thinking this was maybe used to make the impressions in whatever medium they used, like sand or clay in the casting process.
I think it is a very interesting item. Have other members seen or know how these were exactly used, or if they are completed grenade castings??
Regards, Steve
