Collectors
Back in the day vets had lots of stuff! They also shipped stuff home!
It was not uncommon to see a crate full of stuff!
Now its unheard of! But back in the day!
My friend has a few ship home crates!
Think the post office would ship now!
I plan on visting my friend soon and take more pics of goodies!
But lets peek at stuff as it came home!
I took these pics yrs ago!
Swords as they were taken! 1 sword in bamboo container!

Thats how stuff got on the wall!
Stuff brought back! 1 item at a time or in a crate!
Back when I was real young a kid brought 2 fine Japanese swords over to show me! Carried them 2 blocks
back in the day!
Try walking down the street today doing that!
the 1960s! What a time!
I always wondered how all those Japanese rifles showed up in USA!
