    Time to pass these on

    Have a couple of surrender leaflets from North Africa. One in German and one in Italian.
    Haven't taken them out in years since current gun shows are more about selling black rifles and pistols than history displays

    Oh, and I am getting too old to sit behind a table at a show

    I'll take em then

    I try to do some sort of display still at gunshows. I get questioned sometimes by smart@sses who say "It ain't for sale? What's this, a museum or a gunshow?" My response is "Yes, I am SHOWing it at a gunSHOW, not selling it at a gunsale"
    I own firearms not to fight against my government, but to ensure I will not have to.

      OK, you got them. They are mounted on cardboard sheets so you won't have a problem in displaying them
      However I need to know WHERE to send them!
      Suggest you use the private message thingy so I don't miss your reply

          I sent you a message saying I did.... guess you didn't get it. They arrived safe and I have removed them from the cardboard and framed them for display. They are on the table in the post I added about putting the SHOW in gunshow. They got allot of attention in Abilene. Ft. Worth will expose them to allot more people though.

          Thanks again, here is a pic of them framed and on the display table.

            I like your caption, "convince them to surrender in their own language." I just know you meant to say, "convince them in their own language to surrender."

              I was trying to caption about 20 items at midnight on Friday....LOL I didn't like how it came out but wasn't going to redo them either.

                Just put a coma after "convice them to surrender,---- and it will be good! Most dim-wits to-day will not notice anyway!
                You can never go home again.

                  I intended to use the comma which is still a little ambiguous, but, I was tired. I will redo them before the next show.
