Vintage M40 Telescope M.H.R. Co. 1942 D.A. NO1995

I recently picked up this very minty with low serial number vintage M40 Telescope M.H.R. Co. 1942 D.A. NO1995 locally, it came in a sealed plastic bag which makes me think it was never mounted in a Periscope, very cool additional to my Telescope collection

These were boxed, assuming they were distributed as the M38

Vintage Hales No.3 with F. Cotton Powder Co. stamped Windvane Ring

OMG I have had some amazing finds over the past years & found plenty of Hales which I have sold, but I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would have a complete almost mint vintage Hales No.3 with F. Cotton Powder Co. stamped Windvane Ring in-hand here in Australia, this piece of history is beautiful and whilst it's not 100% accurate to the Obi prop it will take pride of place in my collection.

I am not sure my photos do it justice but I tried to capture all the details, I am still shaking with excitement doing this post

Congrats buddy!!

What makes it not accurate?

What makes it not accurate?

I guess the assymetrical cuts

Wonderful piece my friend!

 

[corliss1]

I was wondering if it was the cuts too. Still killer

 

[schrodinger555]

Great find! Mine came from Australia also

Yeah Markus is spot on it's only a small issue of note, that most people would not even notice or know or even care about.

Thanks buddy, I was blown away when I seen this one listed by a local Dealer I knew it would be likely the only chance I had to have a Hales in-hand, I am stoked to have this in my collection

Thanks buddy, it came out of a private collection, the guy had been collecting military stuff for the past 50 years.

LEGO Boba Fett Helmet #75277

I picked up this LEGO Boba Fett Helmet #75277 to go with my Fett display, I also plan to build a custom Prototype Fett Helmet in the coming weeks, once I workout the colored bricks & place the order, they should look cool with my RS Fett Raw Cast Linage Helmet.

Vintage Hales No.3 MK1 with Original Paint & Pink Band

I have something special I just picked up.

The collector who I picked up this vintage Hales No3 MK1 with Original Paint & Pink Band said this was the only Hales he has seen that has the Original Pink Band which denotes Ammonal and in this condition is extremely rare, it would make an amazing display piece or part of a vintage Obi build and will be going in the JY shortly...

 

[Marv]

Was it the one from spandaumilitariashop it has a very similar band

 

[The Ninja]

Marv given the dramas eethan had with PayPal & Hales listings that included "G******" I would appreciate if you delete your post & not link such listing to my thread, post reported to admin.

 

[Marv]

Reported for asking a question? There are details about the item if it's the same - no prices?

 

[The Ninja]

Reported for posting a link to a Hales which includes "G******" in the title & description I thought my post was fairly clear.

 

[Marv]

I'll sort that - being asked and not reported might have been the way to proceed though I think.

Vintage Webley & Scott No3 MkI Flare Pistol

I recently picked up this vintage Webley & Scott No3 MkI Flare Pistol, which formed the base for one of the blasters seen in the Razor Crest's Gun Locker, this one needs to go to Dustin newmagrathea for some special TLC to be de-rusted & re-blued.

I need to give a shout-out again to Andy mugatu who also helped with this auction, thanks buddy

Also a shout-out to lonepigeon Parts of Stars Wars for identifying the vintage Webley & Scott No3 MkI Flare Pistol.
