I come to an end with the content of my show case. All the other things I have shown already in Show & Tell.
A shaving knife with an ivory handle. It belonged to my grandpa. It is very beautiful if you call a knife beautiful and a real antique.
These are miniature guns, some of them as small as a keyholder. Mr. G. collected them once, long time ago. Behind in the red envelope are silver medals issued for the Bicentennial of the United States 1776 - 1976 which my aunt had sent me and which I have shown already.
It's nice that you have something which belonged to your grandfather.

You know, I have this collection gun bought in Waterloo, with a silver handle, but it's lost in my closet, till now I didn't find a proper way to hang it on the wall in a way I truly like it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your collection.

My Papa also shaved with a straight knife like that until the day he died. I loved to watch him soap his face and then shave so carefully!
ReplyDeleteyikes.. can you imagine shaving with that?
ReplyDeleteWow! You have great collections there.
ReplyDeleteIt is all very interesting. It is interesting what people like to collect. I wonder if it says anything aboout their personaities?
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting collection you have! Thank you for sharing it with us. My grandfather had a single edge razor like that and as a little girl I always found it fascinating to watch him shave with it.
