    Certainly optimistic…
    I’m sure I’ve seen that picture somewhere before though.

    That little lot has been on t'bay for months.

    All in all, a nice collection of classic tins and boxes but I don't see any incredibly rare pieces that warrant even a third of the asking price.

    Currently looking for Baikal Makarov pistols with the following prefixes to the serial number: 98, T01, T09, T21, T22
    Prefer boxed or cased but will consider loose examples too.

    That little lot has been up for sale for about 6 months .
    You might have thought in that time he would have a comprehensive list of what's what , Wattle.

    I've got several of those Webley screw top tins, plus the BullDog tin and I'm sure a few of the Wasp tins - I use them to keep screws etc in. Are these really desirable to collectors?
