Some of you may be aware that I collect WWII aircraft parts and crew gear. One elusive item is an affordable genuine Mae West.
Found this one tonight, wasn't really surprised by the GBP1250.00, but the postage had me shocked

Not suitable for overseas air fright posting. Please not Overseas posting will be charged at cost and adjusted.
Code: 1021879Price: 1250.00 GBP
