I'm looking to get in ahead of everyone else and have already pre-booked my flight from the UK to pick up the pinball and the bobby pin, however we don't use the acronym HUO, so I've no idea what it means.

I hope I'm not wasting my flight and it stands for "Hopelessly Useless Object"?

I'm afraid I don't have doubloons. Would a bailing bucket off of the Titanic do? It's barely used.

WAIT!!!!!

I've zoomed in on the photo..... I'm sure the chap in the reflection is wearing bobby pin!

irobot, is there something you're not telling us?

Could we have that photo with a coin in it for scale so we know the scale is to scale?

Seeing how old that coin is makes me believe that the measure is of similar age and was thus used for measuring Bushels, which makes that bobby pin 17 inches long (or 43.18cm) by todays standards.
