Very rare! UB 88 WW I GERMAN SUBMARINE PAPERWEIGHTSTRUCK FROM ACTUAL BRONZE FROM THE SUBMARINEFREE SHIPPING!The UB 88 German submarine was launched on December 11, 1917 and commissioned by the Imperial German Army on January 26, 1918. She was a Type UB III submarine that carried 10 torpedoes and displaced 661 tons when submerged. She operated off the coast of England, France, Scotland, and Ireland and sank at least 13 Allied ships. She surrendered on November 26, 1918 following the Armistice of November 11. The UB 88 was turned over to the US Navy in March 1919 and was subsequently paraded around US harbors during the "Victory Bond" drive. She arrived at her final stop in San Pedro, California in November 1919 where she was dismantled and sunk.This paperweight was made from the actual bronze &/or brass that was recovered from the submarine before she was sunk. (Some articles about the paperweight state it was made of bronze, others say brass, and some say both.) Over 4000 of these UB 88 submarine paperweights were struck and presented as souvenirs for attendees at a military retirement ball in Long Beach, California on May 27, 1921.
