Norrie Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Hiya, I was at Nottingham visiting family and friends for a few days last week, and a few dealers and antique shops too. My nephew had agreed to dig his mums aunts garden to get it ready for a small wall to be built...he turned up lots of broken china, broken animal bones, and accumulator batteries...then found this enamel plate...:) which he gifted to me...soon to be on its way to @Fred Karno's Army, along with the bottle, the spoon and the toothpaste tube...I think the tube is 1930's...but exactly the same tube as used in WW1 with the top removed anyway, I found an old advert for it dated 1917......:) 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert Rat Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Exactly as mentioned Bil...(.people's rubbish.....is my treasure)......How true, the amount of items thrown out on say a house clearances into a skip, as they only have a short time to dump it....so, spend the time in the mess, and you could find the item of a lifetime...if you are Lucky, and Many Are...! Best to you Desert Rat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
