Broken cane, escutcheon. Silver knob with “G. ?? Cotton, U.S.N. Below the knob there are silver rings on the shaft, each with a destination visited or ship’s name – his record of service – St. Nicholas Church; U.S.S. Hancock (laid down in 1943); Mexico; Cuba; Haiti; Santo Domingo; Flag Cruiser Force; and Flag San Domingo. Overall 16-1/2”. Where it has broken, it has been sanded smooth – the cane becomes a swagger stick! 
 
Trench art – empty brass shell (large caliber – 1” diameter, 5-1/4” tall) – top has been bent into a lip at the opening. The shell is covered with scenes of Egypt- camels, pyramids, the sphynx, and date palms. Bottom with “S.M.I. / 1/940 / P.G. in diamond / 20.” This seems to be from an Italian anti-tank gun, used mostly in North Africa. This is some of the best artwork we have seen.
 
Wall plaque with “Dec. 44 / Bastogne” on rim. Images of an American soldier and a German soldier, the German handing a surrender ultimatum to Gen. Anthony McAuliffe.

Verso stamped “Made in Couvin Belgium.” Supposed to have been made of melted down artillery shells. They come in both round and octagonal versions.
