Default Non sport vintage Military sale AND Stamp collecting piece

Forgot I had this kinda cool stuff. First item also has a baseball connotation. READ ALL LOTS CAREFULLY FOR FULL DESCRIPTIONS

1. 9-30-45 Issue of Assam Police Gazette. Typewritten ten page "newsletter" regardling the 159th MP Service battalion. Military Police. All the goings on within the unit, jokes, contests, profiles, etc. BASEBALL too w a cover hyping the 1945 World series w a small write up. REALLY Interesting item that could be considered a crossover collectible. appx 8.5 x 13 in size. Some tears, etc. Fragile. 12.00 shipped.

2. 1919 Annual report War Department volume. Really great piece with all kinds of things related to the war, financial, fiscal, troop strength etc. This is Part one of Volume one, as shown. Simply FASCINTATING HISTORY. Best is probably the BATTLE MAPS and such at the end. Some detatched or torn, but really makes great for the historian, etc. Book has lost back cover and condition issues, but screams PURE HISTORY. Heavy, over 600 pages. THIS ITEM IS SOLD

3. July 3 1944 Boston Herald full ten page paper. MINI VERSION. These were sent to troops for ease of mailing and to conserve paper. Get your magnifier. Has everything, news of the day, locally, sports, comics, entertainment and of course TONS OF WAR NEWS. Size is about 6 3/4 x 9. Really unusual piece from WW II. 15.00 shipped

4.Lot of Six WW One era French postcards (one trimmed) Carte Postale. All have glue reside on back and some wear, but depict various scenes related to the First World War. Particularly interesting is the man in the trench. PRICE is 12.00 shipped on lot

5.Ok, this one isn't military. STAMP COLLECTORS UNITE. 1903 Metropolitan Philetist. VERY early hobby periodical. Fold out, w ads to buy old stamps and even Confederate currency, etc, plus some small write ups. 13.00 shipped.

HOPE YOU FOUND SOMETHING YOU LIKED. PM TO RESERVE AND FOR QUESTIONS. THANK YOU. SCOTT. PP GIFT PLEASE FOR PAYMENTS
