Thief Busted!
« on: March 04, 2014, 04:24:48 PM »
After 55 years, the mystery is solved.  Here is the visual proof of Baby Face Bill (alias SelmaHunter) trying to make off with a cannon ball from the Selma battlefield park while his mean looking accomplice looks out for him.

Mike -

I will sell you that very same projectile for a small profit.  Of course the historical value of such a relic becoming available from such an esteemed collection would add at least $1,000 to the present market value.

Let me know - there is a huge demand for such quality artifacts as you know.  If you are in a really big hurry I can have it sent by express mail.

Your true buddy,


Jim T

Looks more like he's taking a dump instead of a shell.

Slem -

You just THINK those are cannon balls. ;D Just trying to "make my mark" on a union battery site.

Just like a yankee to jump to conclusions! (Sigh) ;)

(Hope you are hanging in there, Dave.  Long time no talk).
