    Another P-38 from my trench art collection.

    This particular example retains the propellers which are usually missing. Additionally the cockpit has been added with a half rifle bullet.

    The P-38 is constructed from bullet casings and rounds and the shell base is 1942 dated.

    The base is adorned with engravings of "1944, New Guinea" and "To Mary from Chester".

      Nope, not for sale-- this is my collection.

      Suggest you look on ebay. They routinely show up there. Most sell in the $125- $175 range, but bargains can be found.
