Jar of Blowpipe Darts

Jar of Blowpipe Darts

1850-1900
Breech block for a Mk2 Bren machine gun made at The Monotype Corporation, a typecasting manufacturing company, during the Second World War. The decentralisation of armament production to engineering firms was known as 'the Monotype model' as a result of the British government commissioning The Monotype Corporation for war work. The Monotype factory made nearly 20 million various components for different articles of war. A single sheet of paper accompanies the object with handwritten notes detailing the object's status as a Section 5 prohibited firearm, some historical information, and hand drawn images of the object and a complete Bren gun.
