Cheers, Ade.

Hi milan , andrew, the paint work doesent look right for 60 years ageing, the two examples are the same...and the dimsions of the mine dont fit the wooden supports, thare are 4 in the box, but the bottom one is the same as the top 3, ok the 2rd and the 3rd could be reversed and put in line with the top one, but the mine still would not fit the box, this box looks as if it would only hold 3 mines..( i dont know the diminsions for the mine, may be some one can supply them) in 1945 why would the box have so much effort in manafacturing...does it give a date of 1945 on it ?,,,,are you going to buy it,,,,how much is it,,,
Our slogan in training troops is, "Officers teach soldiers, soldiers teach officers and soldiers teach each other."
it was lacked with boiled oil
can be it clear out?
It appears to me that box would hold 15 of those mines perfectly, 8 on top and 7 on bottom. My guess is it's a good one!
hi darren,
thank you for putting the pictures up as you have, it makes it easer .
have you figured out how they lay in the box? the thin wood cradles are the key, but one is missing from the box shown. if you look at the cradles at the top of the box you will notice they will sit allternating , up and down, the small notch in the cradle holds the thin part of the mine, the fat part sits in the bigger cut out. the top section holds 8 across. the bottom section is missing a part.

Hi, i see the notch now, the Dimensions for the box are : 530mm x 450mm x 110mm as in the link (nouvelle page0) has any one the dimensions of the mine, they seem very small...maybe 200mm in length..
The Communist Party does not fear criticism because we are Marxist, the truth is on our side, and the basic masses, the workers and peasants, are on our side.
Hi
Are these legitimate then?
Cheers
