Salmagundi - a collection of Oldnauti Bits & Pieces
We sometimes have stock for sale that doesn't relate to any of our existing catalogues - we introduced this page to list those items.
Why Salmagundi?
We already have pages for Nautical Miscellaneous and Aeronautical Miscellaneous, so we looked for a suitable synonym to describe a collection of bits & pieces
Salmagundi has two definitions - although the first sounds tasty, we think the second applies to this collection of stock!
- A salad of chopped meat, anchovies, eggs, and onions, often arranged in rows on lettuce and served with vinegar and oil.
- A mixture or assortment - a potpourri.

| 3213 |  |  | Presentation Gravel named to Woolwich Arsenal - A fine polished hardwood example with an engraved plaque reading "Woolwich Arsenal 1914-1918 R.S.F. No. I.C.P. Presented to G.A.Sheppard." Unfortunately, we have no history with this item, but if any visitors to the site can enlighten us, we would be glad to hear from them! Length from head to tip of handle 8.5" (22cm) | £54.00 | | 2178 |  |  | Trench Art Tankard celebrating the North African Campaign - A wonderful example depicting the North African coastline from Morocco through Tunisia, Libya and Egypt, with cartoons showing soldiers, tanks and palm trees as well as a brief description of events and dates. These commence on the 8th November, 1942 with American landings in Morocco and conclude on 13th May, 1945. The tankard has been manufactured from brass salvaged from the actual battle fields in North Africa and makes a wonderful momento of that critical campaign in WWII. Height 4.75" (12.5cm) |  | | 2124 |  | | Field Ambulance Presentation Cigarette Box - Manufactured from sterling silver and engraved to lid 6(U)FD AMB 1942. Below this there are a number of engraved signatures. We believe this item has been presented by members of the 6th Field Ambulance Unit, probably by colleagues of a departing member. The silver plate shows some wear, but overall in excellent original condition with wood lining. 13cm x 8cm x 4.5cm | |
