Hi SS,
It is not a friend but a local tobacconist with whom I'm acquainted.
The guy had two complete sets from 1996.
He broke one apart and I think he still has the straight military mount which I think is the 1905.
The other set I believe he would like to sell as a whole, but I can ask if he is willing to let the bent one (1909?) go.
The two sets were/are new - unsmoked, with only some oxidation on the stems as shown in my pics.
I live in Argentina and the pricing down here may sound a little stiff for US/EU standards.
Just PM if you are interested and I'll tell how much I paid for it and, if you are still interested, I'll bargain with the guy to try to get you the bent one from the other set.
Cheers,
J
