Default JTR's licence plate (and the Krays' safe!) for sale on eBay

Yep, here's a couple of really interesting lots just gone up for sale on eBay - neither as rubbish as the header may at first appear.

Here's the one for the safe : http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/sale-1960-s-CH...item3a5ff8665d

And here's one for a licence plate some of you would kill (again) for : http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Jack-Ripper-18...item4aa5d4a18d

Well now we know that Jack drove Benz since it was the only car in production by 1888. It must have been quite the sight to watch him ripping up Whitechapel Road with the hammer down.

On the other hand, this could have been Jack's ride.

I know someone who might be able to open that safe - hope there's not a body in it...or a booby trap

Safe locked because key is lost. However, it is possible to reach in round the side and turn the catch.
