Terrible pictures indeed, Ken. They make part of the contents, partizans and all, to look like 'not the real thing' stuff :o.

Do you think it is all reproduction?
thanks

Hello,
nteresting lot,
Maybe some are 19th century
Earlier ??

Why cannot your friend do or ask for better and separated pictures ?
We could clearly see ...

The lance head and socket bayonets are of course 19th c. The other polearm heads may be OK but hard to say. the guy might have stacked them tighter and but more boxes and odds and ends over the heap....just for ambiance.

Some better pics at last
I think there is some good age to them myself

The ones in the first pic with "You 3 Minutes ago" on top of pic are the ones I like

opinions welcome
Regards
Ken

Well, this changes the whole perspective. They do look real, at least a good part of them.
