Coral and Brass is the memoir of U.S. Marines Corps General Holland "Howlin Mad" Smith (1882-1967), considered one of the leading figures of modern amphibious warfare. Controversial at times, Smith never wavered in his dedication to the Marine Corps and dedicated his career in support of the men and women under his command. Coral and Brass remains the classic account of the Marines in the Pacific in World War II.



Remember these or any of my vintage items are not always easy to come by. You can't just go to a store and pick one up, so with most of my items once they are gone they may no longer be available for purchase for quite some time again.

I do not do any restoration to these or any of my finds, I leave the restoration (if any) to the collectors and antique experts.
