WW1 Fuses from War and Peace show

[Deckape]

Heres a couple of pics of fuses i have in my collection. They were both bought at W&P shows, the British no 83 II with adaptor ring was bought last year and the German z92 this year. Both needed a good clean up, especially the British one as you can see from the pics but they have come up pretty well. The no83 was 3,( really cheap, normally around a tenner) the z92 was 13. If anyone is interested i use a brass brush attachment on my drill to get the fuse up really well then polish off. Goes to show you don`t need to spend a fortune to own a piece of history !
