Air Ministry coal bucket


Great War truck

Recommended Posts

.........I thought I would add some photos of my coal bucket. Marked up AM NG Ltd and 1938, it is one of the few pieces of military stuff that my wife allows in the living room.

What are the others Tim ? Everything I leave about mysteriously gravitates to my office upstairs and appears in neat piles just inside the door.

I use it for holding combustibles for my log burner too. Does not look out of place in the living room. In fact we both really like it.

 

I don't generally bring stuff into the house now. Last time I did I received "Oh just what we need, another bayonet", so discretion being the better part of valour it all goes straight into the garage.

Following on from Ian's interesting find I thought I would add some photos of my coal bucket. Marked up AM NG Ltd and 1938, it is one of the few pieces of military stuff that my wife allows in the living room.
