Hi;
No prizes, no points, no prestige just try to be right. I will give the answer in a few days. Take a guess or try to figure it out.
What year was the Christmas depicted in these photo's celebrated. There are a couple of clues.

Great investigative skills displayed by Jonet and Hukk;
It was from a Christmas issue National Geographic 1935.

Ready for the next.
What is this a breakdown picture of. There is one glaring clue.
If you want go ahead and make a guess what the document is out of.

Mauser Action, publication well, I'd have to guess, either Gun World or American Rifleman.

Great ID Adam. The book was close also. It was from the 1940 Bluejackets manual.
