I don’t see any pics.

you probably need to host the images on a site like https://imgur.com/ and then link the address using the picture icon when posting

 

[Kenziemack]

Nope, you must not have permissions set for others to see.
Try opening up the links you want to post with a different browser that is not logged into the site. Or close the browser and try again if you don't have it set to brows.

Why are you having trouble uploading pictures to the forum?

there is a manage attachments link when you post.


Click "post reply" on the lower left of the last post.
Scroll down under Additional options for the "manage attachments" button (make sure pop ups are enabled for this site)
Click the button and it will pop up a window
Select browse
Select the image
then click upload to the right.
It will add the file to your list
when done just click "close the window" at the top right of the manage attachments pop up.

The attachments will appear at the bottom of your post

What a great collection!

 

[Kenziemack]

Thank you! I had no idea my grandfather had all of this. I am so fortunate to have all this history!

You might want to consider taking those clippings to a paper conservator for preservation before they crumble into pieces. Old newsprint has things in it that cause it to disintegrate but the effects can be slowed but it is a job for a professional if the originals are important.

^^^ This. I'd also xerox a few copies in advance of the day all that old newsprint crumbles into dust.

 

[Kenziemack]

I did not even think of this! I will have them all preserved...

I nominate Kenziemack for the coolest under 50 posting ever. BTW: Anyone notice the Baltimore pageant article in one of the clippings?

Quick , someone with a full computer monitor read the calibre marking on that S&W !
Wheather a Terrier or Chief Spl , a very early one of either with 3 digit s/n is way valuable.

Added - If Terrier in .38 S&W , would be 1936
If Chief Spl in ..38 S&W Special , would be 1950

Added Again - Could you also show front of holsters, and close-up of the markings on the back of holsters.
