Poor pics but I don't see any alarm bells.

sorry thats the only pics i have anyone else know if they look good

I'd agree that the blurry minesweeper looks like an original Deumer tombak with little or no gilding left. I'll leave the Blockade Breaker for others to comment upon but you already have Mike's thoughts so that's probably as good as you can get with these photos.

Best regards,

Minesweeper is a nice original, BB needs closer and clearer pics of the reverse, hinge and cutouts looks strange but that could be just the pics

[Nordmark]

Thinking about todays copies, I would not buy the bb based on these pics alone...

Poor photos but don't like the BB, exhibits all signs of a "cave creek" special to me

I had one once

Minesweeper good, Blockade Runner bad

Rob, you're right, looking at it more closely, it does indeed appear to be one of the Cave Creek Specials. My bad, sorry.
