Warning on Sale of Cemetery Memorabilia

The photo above was taken on a very cold and dark and rainy morning in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada. In the area of Canada I visited September 2000, flagholders are very rare, but organizational and military insignia are inscribed on the tombstone itself. Black granite is very widely used for tombstones in the New Brunswick area of Canada covered by this trip. The quality of this image is much less than I would like.
