It is a great WWII scrapbook and obviously belongs in the Militaria/WWII category. But what about a second category?



Lots of pin up girls. I don't know if this is against guidelines. They, actually are pretty tame.

There are beer labels, match book covers, beer coasters, photos, advertisements, headlines, etc. A lot of terrific information.

It has a lacquered, shiny enamel-type cover. Can anyone help me with what this substance is officially called. Warning, large picture.

When I was growing up we called that finish "japanned." Guess others do as well, because a search on eBay using "japanned" brings up several listings, from furniture to boxes to pins...

If you have a lot of beer stuff, in with the brewery collectibles would be one place to list it.

Ephemera?

Looks like a fun item so hopefully you do well with it.

You might also try Collectibles:art;Vintage Pin Up or Collectibles: ARt: Vintage Pin Up Risque.

Show pictures of the pin up art in the listing - if you can make out any signatures on the pin ups mention those names. I can't really tell from your picture who the artists might be but big names in old pin up art are Vargas, Petty, Elvgren, Devilbiss, etc - my mind is drawing a blank on others, sorry. Try to the the words "PIN UP GIRLS or Pin Up Art" in the auction title -

Any of the Collectible Ephemera categories would probably work too.
