I just went to a great gun show in my little town and one thing I found for $5 was a nice Camp Perry ashtray from the 1964 matches. (Year I was born). Is camp Perry stuff collectible? What else do you guys have from there?

I have a small wooden box that was used for holding 50 .22 lr cartridges. On the box top it says
"Camp Perry 1931
The wind blows east
The wind blows west
But Palma Match is always best."
It was given to me by a friend whose father went there every year for 56 years.

Wow thats pretty cool! And old too.
My memento is a Kimber model 82 from the CMP store there on the Camp Perry base. We went out about 12 years ago to watch some people we know shoot.
It’s pretty around there. You can take the ferry over to the island. We drove over to the “Perry's Victory & International Peace Memorial.” It was interesting. They dress up in period clothing and give demonstrations.
Well worth the visit if you are close.
