Interesting 58mm finds
on: June 13, 2010, 09:59:21 PM
Some interesting Classics found at recent trips to the State Surplus Property outlet

Ricola advertising inlay with the Vic shield turned 90 degrees.
Souvenir from Berlin Gendarmenmarkt http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gendarmenmarkt
Hot press three sided shield, I'd never seen this on a 58mm before.


While checking a lot of classics I noticed this one has a Charles Elsener signature etched on the blade. Not one of the 3 pictured above.


Vintage 58mm with single leaf scissor spring, old style file, and a Victoria tang stamp.

Great find,some real interesting ones.  :cheers:
Rest is not idleness,
and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day,
listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky,
is by no means a waste of time
