In my tuck box








All good swapping material for shrapnel,cigarette cards,German badges spent cartridge cases,sweets,old cricket balls bits of shot down German airplanes etc.
Funny thing.we all had vast collections of shrapnel but I never see any of it now.Dont even know where my one went. Mum,I expect."Nasty sharp stuff,get rid of it"

  3. I suppose the problem with things like shrapnel was that others could not see the value in keeping it. I used to have a bit of the Berlin Wall but someone thought it was a load of old rubble and threw it away.
