1918 Columbia renovation

[Mercian]

Thanks for showing the coffee table (-:

I ave a few of the same items, but I'm more WW2 than WW1. I've a set of British WW1 medals with my name on (A great uncle, I think), the 1918 LF&C knucle knife, used by a Canadian Commando in WW2, so the guard is cut flat. The push dagger is unusual, as is the bang stick (-:

In the past I also had a real Winchester 1897 pump action trench shotgun from 1918, with guard and bayonet, but that went when the fiearms laws changed in the UK.

Best Regards,

Adrian

Thanks! That is awesome with the named medals!! I wish my WW2 collection could be out, too much stuff and I'm trying to get my house in order. Love the weird Lewis. Hopefully the Winchester went somewhere safe! These pictures are a bit outdated, I've moved stuff around a bit and I'll put a piece of green canvas on the bottom, just waiting on the glass. I love the smell of old preserved canvas, but it's a bit too stinky to bring in yet.

Hi Serge,

Do you know what the front hubs are, please?

Thanks,

Stay Safe,

Hello Adrian;
Thanks you too!
The 2 ours are the same as that of the COLUMBIA 1917 USA748, no markings.
