Museum pics for Ron Smith et al

Ida-Alp · 11-11-2004, 11:00 PM

This is the display I'm working on--

I don't know what happened to these pics???

This same fellow built this Fokker triplane replica about ten years ago for the museum. It has flown twice but is grounded now.

Thanks for the help--Al

Nice Al.

There was a space before the numbers, and this forum will automatically put a _ for any spaces, so I added that, since you must have manually added the links <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />

Thanks Ed, But the first three pics don't show. Should I re send them without the space?? Al

I "fixed" them, you must have gone in and tried "fixing" them too.

I have fixed them again,

Al,

A fascinating display!

I'm developing a database of Weimar police marks and notice that the placard says the Luger was issued to the police in Erfurt indicating there must be a grip strap mark. I would appreciate knowing what that mark is. Thanks and congratulations on your accomplishment.

Thanks Don--The grip strap is marked--S. E. I. 571--

Ed-That's exactly what happened. Thanks for the fix--Al

Al,
Thanks for sending these photos. Very impressive display. And thanks for the complimentary addition. I'm glad I could contribute in a small way. I appreciate it very much.
