kfields Posted August 5, 2022 Share #1 Posted August 5, 2022 So I picked this up at a roadside flea market on Route 40 near Eaton, Ohio today. Very, very strange! I'm sure it's a gag presentation piece as it's composed of a brass plaque attached to what looks like a tray for a child's high chair. Funny and different but looks like the men really liked him. I think the 8707th was active for a very short time in the early 50's at Brooks Field in Texas. I don't know much about Colonel Canright. It set me back $7.

Brian Keith Posted August 5, 2022 Share #2 Posted August 5, 2022 Yes, kind of a head scratchier. Little doubt that it is an inside joke. Never know what you'll find on the 127 yard sale! BKW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kfields Posted August 6, 2022 Author Share #3 Posted August 6, 2022 I didn't realize till you mentioned it that it was the Route 127 yard sale weekend! I found this at the intersection of route 40 & 127. And here is the headstone of Col. Canright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
