The curse of the Kugels

Hi. In the early days of eBay I brought a 1913 and 1915 Kugel from quite a high profiled seller of inert ordnance in the US. They are the only two items I have had go missing in the post.

Ten years later I figure its time to let it go and move on and have another go at buying Kugels:tongue: (I still had none in my collection). This time I struck up a deal with a seller from Central Europe for a number of items including a 1913 and 1915 Kugel. Some of the items turned up today including a 1915 Kugel and a reproduction igniter:banghead:. The body looks ok and as the postage was quite expensive, Im just going to source another igniter and move on (I can't go another 10 years without a Kugel).

If you have a nice bronze igniter Mle. 1913 or a Zinc friction igniter 1915 for sale or trade please let me know. Cheers
