Trench Art History

[Road King]

If any of you Milsurp Collectors out there that collect Trench Art, I have found the most extensive information book in this field of cllecting that I have seen produced. The book is over 400 pages of illustrations and research by Jane A. Kimball. With 100s of photos, it covers Trench Art of the Great war, War Souvenirs, Decorated Shell Casings, Decorated Military Equipment, War Surplus, Trench Art of WWII and after, Head stamps of WWI Artillery Shells and much more.

the book is still available. check about abebooks. also, another great read on trench art is in a couple of books by nicholas saunders, who has a phd in archeology. also check out abebooks. have emailed jane k on previous occasions regarding trench art. she is a librarian in california, likely retired now, who has an amazing trench art collection as indicated in her book.
