Military glass tank - 8/31/2010 3:03:21 PM    adshepard   Posts: 346 Joined: 8/11/2004 Status: offline I found this twin turret glass military tank while diving a few weeks back. It is about four inches long and in perfect condition. I can't imagine it as a toy being made of glass, but maybe it was.  Any ideas as to who made it and how old it is?  Any value to it?  I am also very willing to sell it if anyone is interested.
