    WWI shell and lighter.

    I picked up a couple of nice items during the holiday.
    Firstly : I found a Trench Art lighter made from a 1916 37/85 small shell case.
    A week later I found an empty 37/85 case. both are February 1916 production.
    Then on Sunday I found a deactivated shell for the case at our local brocante. It just caught my eye when browsing a stall with lot's of rust bayonets.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.
