Inadvertent Humor In Advertising
 
All,

While engaged in some 'data mining"; ie, going through about 25 years worth of assorted Luger dealer monthly sales advertising flyers, I found a number of pretty funny things, but this is about the best:
"Luger, SN #77, CASED 1906 NAVY, 100/200 meter sights,Totally mint in and out. Only 75 made."

This easily beat out the 1975 ad"1917/ 1920 Erfurt LP-08, all original, matching numbers, top collection quality."

Amazing what people used to buy.

Tom, nice stuff :)

The 1975 might even be right: Only 75 'new' Navies made ;)
