World At War Auction

Cowans: World at War Auction June 22

This auction is about 10 minutes from my house. I went to this auction last year, and bought 2 flint rifles. It is just fantastic! Better than a museum because all this stuff is in one big room and you can handle all of it yourself! Prices are pretty good as well. Last year I won my bid at about 70% of the catalog estimated value. Others did much better on more expensive items.

Check out the Catalog.

Wow.

Would never see an auction of that ilk here in the UK.

5) British WWII canvas pack. (EST $300-$500)

Bloody hell, had one of those as standard issue back in the 70's when I was serving in the British Army.

Wish I had kept the piece of shit now..

So funny how archaic stuff has actually garnered an interest and risen in value,

My grandfather had several WWI and WWII bayonets, I was left one in his will and my landlord of 15 yrs ago nicked it the bastard..

He (my Grandad) had some really cool stuff, WWI German helmet, a SS Dagger and a really cool '20s model aeroplane flat two engine..it was an OHV too!
