<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 43069, member: 36"]Dang. All I ever find are Chinese-made quartz watches with "Japanese movement", unless it's an overpriced Seiko. All women's. <img src="http://i1235.photobucket.com/albums/ff436/Evelyb302/101_0017-1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> I did however find this today... a piece of prisoner of war art from the internment camp on the Isle of Man. Not sure what I'm going to do with it yet. A German or Austrian immigrant to England carved it out of what looks like a cow bone. </p><p><img src="http://i1235.photobucket.com/albums/ff436/Evelyb302/101_0018-1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>This next one is going locally if it goes at all. It's a wooden cane that's made to look like it telescopes into itself. The handle is horn with a silver band around it. The band has initials and a date - September 27 1899. Price for both pieces? Five bucks.</p><p><img src="http://i1235.photobucket.com/albums/ff436/Evelyb302/101_0022.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
