A very interesting ink well has just been advertised on eBay.



I have never seen one of these before.

The hat measures 10.6 cm long by 8.5 cm wide and 4.5 cm high.

The style reminds me of something that J R Ewing would have worn, "Boy you're just one dumb ole cowboy, ain't you!" :woohoo:

Frank,

It does look more southern USA than southern Africa but a nice item for all that.

Best wishes

Hello David,
Agreed.

Sorry, just can't help my self today! :silly:

Just as well J R did not collect medals, there would be none left for the rest of us!

Kind regards Frank.
