While not in the same league as Mikes finds at his show I bought these at a military fair this morning.
A badge dealer who is a friend occasionally visits his loft and keeps anything Boer war related for me for first refusal.
He presented me with these this morning so I thought I would show them to the forum.
Two bound editions of the Times Weekly Edition 1901 & 1902 they are full of reports for the events of the time and of course follow the day to day events of the Boer war.
They look to be a superb point of reference so if anyone needs a look up for a particular week just ask.

Hello Paul,
A very useful edition to the bookcase, but, upon looking at your collection, there does seem to be, a considerable amount of "German" :sick: related material?
Regards Frank

Very amused to see Bernard sitting next to Erwin, not sure that he would like that!
