			 These strange items sold on ebay recently. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	They are from a UK schoolboy's Blitz shrapnel collection - but what are they? The lettering 'B2' appears on the cylinder object with a slot in the top - the B2.2 was a type of Luftwaffe incendiary bomb, but it bears no resemblance to this ordnance. The items sold for a whopping £124.00 - so someone clearly knows what they are. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WW2-Luftw...rdt=true&rt=nc  |

				B or E ?
			 
			The letter painted  in white on the cylinder could be an ugly E. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	Have a close look maybe.  |

			The can has what appears to be a "pull-off" top, so a one time use item. Perhaps an item from a survival kit? Are we positive that its even Luftwaffe related? 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	Could be anything from a can of beer, a can of oil or anything else in between.  |
