I've been told that this group of photos and data - the 24lb box - is about 1/3rd of what this gentleman has. He is waiting for me to finish my scans and return box one before sending more - who knows......
I have one photo that is my favorite, of a travelling grenade display board - what would be the ultimate collector's find in some dusty garage someplace, just waiting to be found. I'll try and post it when I get home tonight, but I've got another group of visitors coming in for a couple of days, may be a bit before I can find time.
I think that this is my favorite picture out of the entire box. As I mentioned above I like to think that this travelling display board is still intact, sitting cool and dry in a garage somewhere, covered in dust with a little old lady trying to decide who she can get to haul it off for her -
Wow!!
Ok, I'll try you to give a name to some italians:
1068 submunition bomblet 2Kg
1074 and 1075 Breda Mod.35/36
1076 SRCM35
1077 Oto35
1078 Hungarian 31M
1079 SRCM35 modified as pressure mine
1080 a rare picture of italian AT grenade Tipo L
1081 and 1081a Petardo Stobi
1082 ?
1083 cutaway of ww1 rifle grenade Bertone
1084 ?
1085 ?
1086 rare picture of AT grenade Tipo C.S.
1087 to 1089 different models of Petardo P.O.
1090 and 1090a ww1/2 grenade Tipo Sipe
Francesco got it - on the first board, second row center is not a grenade, it is a WWII Italian submunition - for some of us even more desirable that the grenades around it. I wonder how many of these pieces still survive today.
