Vintage SOUTH AFRICA ZULU & BOER WAR, BRITISH MILITARY Paper Lot, 1877-1900 more
This interesting lot of SOUTH AFRICAN & BRITISH MILITARY COLLECTIBLES comes from a lode of material we picked up a number of years ago from an old, venerated bookstore in Seattle which went out of business after 100 years of service. We were able to purchase a large lot of ephemera dating from roughly 1840 to 1930 - including loose pages from a variety of the BEST ILLUSTRATED AND RESPECTED MAGAZINES AND JOURNALS of the day. Many of these magazines and journals include scholarly and entertaining articles on many subjects of interest -- many having never been reprinted in any form.In our "spare" time we have been selecting many hard-to-get subjects from this group and putting together some scarce and highly interesting material. This group of 20 sheets come from HARPER'S ILLUSTRATED WEEKLY & ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS. Pages measure on average about 11" x 16". ALL ARE FULL PAGES UNLESS OTHERWISE DESCRIBED.

Feedback: I always leave positive feedback once the buyer has left the same and I am confident that the transaction has been positive and enjoyable for both buyer and seller. If, for some reason, you are unhappy or have concerns, please email me first before leaving negative feedback. Trust me, it's in both of our interests to work out the differences before we put on the boxing gloves. I have a pretty good feedback record, so if in doubt, just ask.

An Important message to the window shoppers: If you are viewing my listings and wish to comment on any aspect of the description, please do so, but keep it clean, positive and constructive. If you have a grudge against anything I have stated, make sure you back up your claim with a peer reviewed online source to back up your claim, otherwise I'll direct you to re-read this section you naughty little boys! Whilst I do love spending hours learning and talking to collectors who have more information than me about a particular object, if you are a johnny come lately know it all, whose had 2 pints of mid strength and had a row with the wife/cat/dog/postman/religious entity/snails in the garden eating your cabbages, don't waste your time. I find that global warming could easily be reduced by you saving the power used to email me. Instead, you could easily take your frustration out on watching old episodes of Fawlty Towers/Cheers/Germaine Greer exercise videos.

British Saladin Armored Car
Runs great, no major issues, 26,000lbs. Street legal in Texas with license plate, clear title. 1969 model. All MOD records included, this vehicle spent it's life on the island of Cypress from 1971 to 1990 in service to the Queen. Comes with a long list of Kit such as cannon tools, cables, maint. tools, full set of manuals, etc. Recently drove it on a 15-mile road march to a parade in Burnet, Texas with no issues. Does not have a radio but has all the hookups ready to install your clansman. 1919's shown do not go with the vehicle as they are live and stay with me. The cannon is demilled but complete. The only thing this vehicle is missing is the cannon recoil guard. Small hydraulic leak somewhere-small as in I've had to add 2 quarts in 2 years-just messy on sub-floor of vehicle. Hydraulic accumulators require charging w/nitrogen about every 3-4 mos, I have equipment that does this easily and will go with the vehicle. This is a serious piece of armor, can be driven in town if you have a spotter along, full turn signals/brake lights, etc. Can drive onto a trailer for transport, doesnt require any permits for trailering but will require a tractor trailer. Selling to buy something else to play with. AS-IS.
