First Eastern General Hospital WW1 tin 1914. Not seen another yet. #Tin #WW1 #Christmas #collecting

Very happy to get this Princess Mary Chocolate box by Pascall :D

I am very happy to add this to the collection.

First World War Christmas: 5, family Christmas cards from a son to his father, Pte George Beaney of the 13th Glosters, who died of his wounds28 December 1916 A reminder of the tragic losses endured by families in this war, especially poignant at Christmas Lest we forget

Here is an odd item to add to the collection, haha.

First World War Christmas: 20, ‘hearty greeting’ As Cadburys was a company founded on Quaker principles, they resolved not to supply chocolate for the British Army Nevertheless, in 1914 they sent chocolate in tins to wounded soldiers, followed by these boxes in later years

Saw the classic 1964 FWW film ‘King & Country’ for the first time yesterday. Excellent performance from Tom Courtney. It’s of its time of course, but some interesting themes nevertheless. And, importantly, this 👇- a Princess Mary box, with a bullet pencil to boot! 😃

WW1 Christmas card wallet Frame made by The Ellbee Novelty Co. I've not seen the red one before. How many colours did they do??

Excellent find today. Plan of Railway Dugouts Advanced Dressing Station in March 1917.

Ok, so, I have these. Anyone hazard a guess as to the calibre and origin of these rounds, apparently (allegedly) associated with Suvla Bay (Gallipoli)? Stephen Chambers Taff Gillingham ?

Has anyone seen of these before. It is stamped with E R Watts & Son. Very small at only 3.7cm when closed.

Rather than rebuking the despicable & illegal modern ivory trade, NO DISTINCTION is made at all for genuine Antique Works of Art. It is all thoughtlessly lumped together as “ivory” Hundreds, thousands of years of ALL OUR HISTORY, thrown under the Bus in a single ill judged moment

Looks the same to me. Fantastic book of the Gamages christmas catalogue from 1913

In aid of the Army Welfare Fund - Dancing Festival - 1944

2 original AVRO envelopes. I can't see many of these still being around.

Has anyone seen one of these before? Stamped british inside of a diamond shape.

Any idea what this is? It is stamped on the side with a broad arrow 150c/1069. Is there any online database I can use to look it up?

ooooh free newspapers weekend :D. Time to look for Princess Mary box snippets to add to my collection #ww1
