Bob Hunter Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 I have yet to see the Duppler Militia on a bar. That one seems very esoteric.
Stogieman Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Pretty amazing group and effort on somebody's part! Nice find!
notned Posted February 2, 2006 Author Posted February 2, 2006 I would love to accommodate you with that one! but alas! i missed out on it! had to work and missed the closing of the auction...i may be able to contact the new owner and see if he is prepared to let me post a pic of it....CheersPaul

I've got one likely Bavarian ribbon in particular that I'm trying to nail down.Thanks,--Chris
landsknechte Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 grunbling? Whose grumbling?You're mocking my unhealthy obsession again, aren't you? No. I'm not paranoid, everyone is out to get me. The squirrels told me so.
