Someone mis-listed this on e-bay the other week, had it in the soda section.

Now this P-38 and kangaroo have a new home.

More than likely, something from the 5th USAAC in Australia.

The seller said her FnL brought it home on the Missouria.

I thought trench art was made from used shells and the like, this looks like a manufactured item, unless there is something I'm not seeing in this pick...

It's obviously Australia that the Roo' and the plane are mounted too, I was curious if it was marked in anyway to show it was made from war surplus materials...
