Here is an interesting one. Silver plated tray that was handmade for the 431st Fighter Interceptor Squadron in Tripoli, Libya. Has to date from pre-1958 as that is when the unit left Libya. Stamping reads: HAND MADE ADNAN BEZANTI TRIPOLI LAVORAZIONE A MANO with a star. What kind of value would one put on this thing? :icon_scratch:

These vintage squadron plaques and bowls never bring as much as they should. Just not that much demand. But yours is really cool. I would try for $200-$250 and take $100.

Nice piece of history WarBaby! I would be neat to track down the squadron and see if a member was interested in it...neat!
 
Thanks guys! It is a unique piece, I just had to pick up when I saw it.
