New German medals for Review
I just purchased this lot of medals in their original issue packets. Although I already own one of each I could not resist these nice examples. My camera is acting funny (it refuses to focus) but I'll try to post individual pictures. Thanks & enjoy.

EK2 rim halves
I have an EK2 where two of the rim halves have come apart and you can see through to the core. Can this happen or does it mean its a fake?

Unusual Book’Araber Aufstand’
Guys,
Got this yesterday.
As usual we (the Brits) don't get good press.
I must read a bit more of it as it was made in 43 it appears to document the problem of resettlement of Jews that escaped Europe early on? It covers the whole issue with the faults in the failing British policy of the day(all sound familiar). I wonder if it is a school book?
I thought terrorism was a relativley new concept but not so as there are many accounts of bomb attacks against British and Arab targets?
Quite unusual, it has a dedication inside the cover that states War Easter 1944 in Russia? I thought all the Sonderverband 228? were in Africa?:confused: So who would be in Russia and have an interest?
Regards
Jock

Requesting Advice on selling WW2 German Collections
hello, I am new to this forum and hoping to get some advice.
In the last month I have been asked by two friends (age 87 and 91) to help them to sell off their extensive WW2 german souvenir collections.
Ruby is a WWII combat vet of the Lord Strathcona's Horse, Royal Canadians Regiment, (The Straths) 5th Canadian Armored Brigade, he was a gunner on Shermans and saw extensive action in both Italy and Western Europe.
Bill is a WWII scout with Patton's 1st Armored in Europe and also saw extensive combat action.
Almost all the souvenir's they have where personally captured on the battlefield by them and have some amazing stories attached.
I would like to see both Ruby and Bill get fair value for their items that include flags, swords, daggers, bayonets, badges, patches, helmets, headgear and much other.
I have collected US WWII items for years but have never ventured into German collectables
Will be needing to do much research to determine what is involved with these items. This looks like a great place to start, any recomendations as to source material? am located in the Western Washington State area of the US. Have sold on fleabay and gunbroker in the past, any other suggestions?.
Thanks, olypenn22
(have attached a picture of Ruby tank in Italy in 1944, he is second from right, his tank was named the Chicoutimi, 3th troop, C Squadron, the Strats)
