Technical Wall Chart for the Finnish Luger
A very attractive pre-war technical wall chart for the Finnish (M23) Luger pistol which I shall hang in my 'paradise room' in order to eliminate some of the dull surfaces of the walls. Even though Finnish Lugers are not my area of specialty, this huge chart surely makes an eye-catcher.
All I require now is a similar technical chart for the Mauser Broomhandle, an ammunition board, and an imperial Bavarian commemorative flag to put the finishing touches to my room. I am going back to the future... Albert Last edited by Imperial Arms; 01-17-2005 at 11:49 PM. |

Very Nice Albert... I bet you could sell some nice copies of that chart to all the Finnish Luger owners... Check with FEDEX-Kinko's...

Hello John,
It would not a bad idea to sell color copies of the chart, if it was not so huge in size! The chart measures 4 ft (L) x 3 ft (H) and I do not sure if Kinkos has a color copier that large in size. Furthermore, the chart is now behind glass to preserve it and it would be complicated to remove the back board of the frame and take out the chart for this purpose. I guess it would be easier if I would simply sell the chart to a collector if I decide to replace it with another item of more value to me. If I had to take a guess, I reckon it is worth about $700-$800 (with the frame). |
