    Description

    .
    Good afternoon from Congers, NY.  I had the privilege of buying some items from the estate of a WW2 vet this weekend.  Please check out our auctions all this week for a number of items from the IBC region where he was stationed, both being sold as auction items and "Buy It Now" items.  I feel like this Blood Chit really ties the whole lot together, so it goes up first.  Happy to share it here on eBay; happy bidding!
    Blood chit, now framed, appx. 8" x 10".  With serial number (maybe B3821? B3621?) and red over stamp.  I have not removed it from the frame; I will remove if the winning bidder wants it shipped without frame.
    Army Air Corps Sterling "Air Crew" wings with backing mounts.  Marked "Sterling".
    CBI Theater patch.  3.25" x 2 3/8" appx.  Sewn.
    Three ribbons... Good Conduct, Asia / Pacific with 2 service stars, another Good Conduct, and a blue one I don't recognize (sorry).
    Finally, "Pocket Guide to China", (1942), and a Red Cross Guide Book to India (front cover badly torn; folding maps intact).
    If you have any other questions, feel free to send them over.  If you have photo requests, please be as specific as possible about what you would like to see.  Name of airman will be supplied to winning bidder (only) out of respect for family.
    Offered for auction with an opening bid of .76. This does not in any way reflect what I think the item is worth, and I do not end auctions early.  Ever.  Now please go back and read that again before asking me to end the auction early.  High bidder owns the item in 10 days.  I am charging Medium USPS Flat Rate shipping on this.  I will also insure the package for the full value of the item at my expense.  If the cost of shipping is less than anticipated, I send a pro rata refund without being asked.
    The item will be carefully, skillfully packaged and shipped via USPS Priority Mail.  I will pay for insurance for full value of the item; I will also pay for any additional domestic shipping charges not indicated here or shipping overages.  Everything ships with a tracking number.  Most items ship the same day as payment, if not same day then next business day.  You may/will need to sign for the item when it arrives.  I have no control over sales tax; eBay automatically applies sales tax.
