What is This?

What is This?

Submitted by: Downhome
2030 Views | 4 Likes

Hello, Ron; We are wondering if your readers can help us identify this item. My sister-in-law’s father found it on the beach in Botwood in 1942. It’s a hollow brass cylinder approximately 3.5 inches in length and just over 0.5 inch in diameter. The item on the left screws into the hollow of the cylinder. The item on the left also has what seems like a miniature spoon on its end, albeit the “spoon” is quite shallow. It appears this item was manufactured in England and may have something to do with the Second World War. Anyone with suggestions as to what this is and/or what it was used for can contact me via email at [email protected].   Submitted By: NULL
