    Join us as we explore an old property left Vacant after the sad passing of the owner.
    Left behind is a treasure trove of items from the 40s and 50s, and lurking in a cobwebbed corner of the yard sits a gun cabinet with actual Guns!!
    We also discover an old 40s Land Rover sat rotting away and overgrown by nature.

    Diana air rifles were made in Germany, that looks very like a Diana Model 1, so could have been made as early as 1920 , at the latest the 1940s.
    Alex, that thing hanging from the light fitting in the caravan is a pomander, a type of air freshener.

    Reminds me of some places I would explore as a kid. Newspaper of 1949, three years after the big war ended. Because of the war, some people never returned home leaving behind spouses and belongings. Some retuned home injured spending their final days in a care homes. I took care of a few widows back in the 60s who faced exactly that

The old Tri Ang toys and the two air guns , I could stay in there forever. That caravan was right out of the fifties , and to finish off with the rockets and a big bang , what more can I say . God Bless you all and a hope that the new year brings happiness , good health , and more of your great explores . Stuart in Canada ..

      yep definitely 1950's .I wonder what they used to tow it with? a Land rover would be struggling. My Dad used to hire a caravan every year in the 1960's and I remember an English one being the same design as that but not as big. The family Zephyr was working hard up hills towing it .

  • @tarotbytheseawithisabellar8717
    @tarotbytheseawithisabellar8717 Год назад +1

    Happy New Year guys. Wow! The caravan is amazing! I think it’s earlier than 70’s more like 40’s or 50’s, because of the design of the couch. It would be great to restore the caravan…Stay safe. 🙂

    Diana has been an air gun industry leader since way back in 1892. During this time, they have built a reputation for quality air rifles. The Stormrider, however, is their first foray into budget-friendly PCP air rifles.

    The 'what's that?' that was hanging in the caravan, is known as a pot pourri pomander. For my sins I used to collect them. 😜 Fabulous finds this week, guys. Pompeye always has me in stitches. Great stuff!

  • @amyloueliza
    @amyloueliza 8 дней назад

    As someone already said this caravan is 1950's look at the art deco styling. They didn't have toilets in them. You went to the shower block. Or as Steve said you took your spade to dig a hole. Beautiful old bird. Yes, the thing hanging off the light is a pommander. You would fill it from the bottom with things like dried herbs/lavender, cloves for keeping the moths away.

    From the records that he pulled out I was able to look up "brightly dawns our wedding day" on youtube and listen. According to information I could find it was published in 1930. It really seemed to fit the style of stuff found in that shed. So much forgotten and lost.

    • @bikerleo1966
      @bikerleo1966 Год назад

      It is not ebonite ! Ebonite is rubbery substance.
      In the late 19th and early 20th century, manufacturers used shellac, a brittle resin-like substance produced by insects, to press their records. In order to ensure that the shellac held up, manufacturers would add ground up stone and carbon black powder to the mix in order to strengthen the otherwise brittle material.

    Records of that era were made very differently to how records were made later.
    In the late 19th and early 20th century, manufacturers used shellac, a brittle resin-like substance produced by insects, to press their records. In order to ensure that the shellac held up, manufacturers would add ground up stone and carbon black powder to the mix in order to strengthen the otherwise brittle material.

    • @Outandaboutonashoestring
      @Outandaboutonashoestring Год назад +1

      I stand corrected, although my Diana rifle (1970's) was American made the company were originally German
      Mayer & Grammelspacher GmbH was founded in Rastatt in 1890[1] by 24-year old toolmaker Jakob Mayer and financier Josef Grammelspacher, initially focusing on household metal goods. Two years later they introduced their first air gun, a pistol, based[3] on the Haviland & Gunn model of 1872.[4] The first rifle, a break barrel design, followed in 1895. Early products were marked "MGR" (for Mayer, Grammelspacher and Rastatt) before the introduction of the now-famous "Diana" brand name. In 1901 Grammelspacher left the company for reasons unknown, whilst Mayer was awarded his first patent.[3]

    I think the caravan might be a Carlite. A very high quality make, sometimes called the Rolls Royce of caravans.

    • @rich_edwards79
      @rich_edwards79 Год назад +1

      Maybe but given the size, it's more likely a vintage Roma. Designed for living in year-round so built very strong, the downside is that you need a big vehicle to tow it due to the weight, and most caravan sites won't accept them because of the association with gypsies.
      (You're also much more likely to get stopped by the police while towing one, for the same reason. Apparently other large, 'winterised' vans like those made by Polar and Hobby suffer from the same stigma, the powers that be assume you're living in it, and treat you accordingly.)
      Lovely vans, much better built than most statics, but lots of drawbacks unless you're planning on just parking one for use as extra accommodation.
