WW2 paratrooper folder....
I know it's ended, but I just thought you chaps would be interested. Oh, it's the second one I've seen in two weeks.

IIRC, at a general auction I attended last year a foldable BSA airborne bicycle (admittedly in need of restoration) went for £120. This struck me as a bit of a bargain, but I was unfortunately there to bid on ceramics!
For those that are interested, many Allied service personnel in WW2 found them an annoying encumbrance...
