      Nothing as of yet. :( Ordered a couple of vintage wooden "The Eyesaver" rulers....they're one of the last pieces I need to complete my US Army PH-261 darkroom set . I've not been able to find the exact match from the manual. But at least the brand and type are similar.  TM 11-400 shows a dual-range ruler with both inches and centimeters (Which is weird in itself considering the US Army did everything in "Eagles per Freedom" and not in the decimal system 😅 )

      Very confident that version is early to mid  1950's as I have not seen that contract before in later 1950's kits or 1960's   I have a suspicion that the kit was opened at one time also and retaped but can't say for sure.     Member rwilh might be able to give you some further info.

      Not a knife guy, but the design is very similar to Aussie and NZ USMC knives during ww2. An Awsome acquisition 👍

      Wow—thank you so much for sharing this incredible story. That must’ve been an unforgettable event to witness in person, and the connection through Albert Jacobson makes it even more meaningful. I can only imagine how surreal it must have been to see a U-2 take off and land, especially on such a historic occasion. That lapel pin and signed program sound like amazing keepsakes. I’d definitely love to see them if you ever find them again. Also, I didn’t know about the Cold War Museum—thanks for the link! I’ll definitely check it out.
