Default Buried Treasure

My great uncle reciently passed on and he left me a couple of guns and 2 trunks full of goodies I thought you guys might enjoy my find .Here are a few pics of what filled the first trunk . I havent got the second trunk home yet but I hope to be surprised! Is anyone interested? I plan on keeping a few things but with at least one trunk full I thought it might be good to let some other collector have a chance.

How many rounds are in that pack of "Rocket"? That's just cool.

Are you sure 24? The package says 28. I haven't seen any of those little "pocket packs" for a long time. Used to find em at gun shows around here every now and then, shorts or shotshells, but I haven't seen any for quite a while. Western had a similar pocket pack like that too.


I like the .41 Swiss box. Neat stuff!

28 minus the 4 that someone shot = 24!
And to think they told me I was wasting my time in collage!
(which they was right) BTW.

Touche Zane!

Did you take an art class where you could make colleges while you were in collage?
