About this item
Here is something for the military collector who thinks they have it all!
Sold at the British Empire Exhibition in 1925, these little machines were "Made Entirely by British Ex-Service Men With British Materials Throughout"
A way of employing wounded and unemployed ex soldiers, sailors and airmen.
This is the only example of this little invention I have ever seen, and comes complete in its cardboard box, with instructions and an original business card for the Elbon Company.
A great piece of post WW1 social history, and one for the Wembley Empire Exhibition collectors too.
