3 ORIGINAL WWI TRENCH ART, 37MM BRASS SHELLS, CROSS OF LORRAINE 1917-18
DUE TO THE CURRENT SITUATION YOU MAY EXPERIENCE DELAYS IN RECEIVING MAIL BUT MOST MAIL IS BACK TO NORMAL.
This is a set of three 37mm shells turned into trench art. Two are 1917 date stamped on the bottom and one is 1918 date stamped. Two had been pulled apart (see photos) but are complete. All three have the Cross of Lorraine on them and a floral vine pattern on them. I suspect these were done by the same soldier that did the two 75mm casings I just sold but these are not signed on the bottom so that was only speculation, I have no proof of that. It is fairly obvious that these three were done by the same person though.
I found these in a basement in Colorado last week. The original owners had passed away and there is no family left now. I found four generations of stuff at this place.
Good used condition.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS. I HAVE BEEN HAVING A LOT OF PROBLEMS LATELY WITH BAD ADDRESSES. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR ADDRESS IS CURRENT AND ACCURATE. IF I HAVE PROBLEMS, WILL REFUND YOU AND RELIST. SOME ADDRESSES ARE ALSO TO LONG FOR OUR ONLINE POSTAL LABELS. PLEASE PROVIDE A WORKING ADDRESS.
I will also combine sales BUT once paid will ship (sorry cannot hold paid items, will revoke my seller status). However, certain items CANNOT be shipped outside the United States such as military radio equipment. I will not bend, tweek or break any laws restricting the shipping of certain item.
Comes from a smoke free home, feel free to ask questions.
ABOUT HANDLING CHARGES: I still hate handling charges and view them as a loop hole for some unreputable sellers to increase their profits. I won\'t use handling charges unless a buyer requests special services.
REFUND/RETURNS. You DO have a THIRTY DAY RIGHT OF INSPECTION and return it for a full refund. I try to pack things as best I can, and if I feel I was amiss on that I will gladly work with somebody. Sometimes I forget people value boxes and packaging and I can feel their pain so if I feel I didn\'t package something good enough I am more than happy to work with someone. Most of the time I am very careful although I do try to use whatever boxes I can find instead of buying them to keep from charging a handling fee.
PAYMENT MUST BE RECEIVED WITHIN 7 DAYS. Or will automatically file an unpaid claim.
