nice catch, David! yes, definitely WW2 era. a lot of these were made not necessarily for tourist consumption, but rather as souvenirs for G.I.'s during that time period. on the same note, i'm starting to think why moro weapons became more flamboyant at the turn of the century, which is for the same reason...
check out Springfield area antique malls; i found quite a few pieces from that area.
