The grenade was a present from my dad. he got it at a very reasonable price at a show in baltimore. the dealer damaged it on the way to the show. still has original contents though. still a nice bottle.

Thanks for the close-up pics...it makes such a difference...I couldn't visualize how they would have been used (Jamie said he had gotten some off the top of a house)...so I looked up "Diddie-Blitzen Rods"...I came across a site "Picker's Treasure" and they had pics of them still on the rods - one was even still in the tripod thing that sat on the roof! Too cool...it's like the old insulators and these glass (and ceramic) balls and all the colorful/funky advertising way back when...seems like it would have been rather pretty place...wish I could remember it that way!

Thanks for sharing - now if I see these when I'm out and about...I'll know what they are! ~~~and grab 'em!
