Original multi-piece double sided pennant for sale. Made from to separate panels of satin-like material sewn together with lanyard cord colored with the German national colors. The red material has faded to a light red color. White disks and the Swaz's are also separate pieces. Length is approx. 27 inches by 8 inches across the top . There is a hanging rod across the top but it is broken unfortunately...Still able to hang and display nicely.
I have posted this on many forums and all the conclusions were that it is a genuine, probably privately made piece. Very unique pennant.
Unissued and 1943 dated mattress cover for military cots. Made by St. Louis Bedding of Montreal. Nice!
Maybe one of you guys could give me an overview translation on this ID. I'd appreciate it. Just trying to learn about it and gain more knowledge.
Sincerely
Hi Guys, just joined the forum today, I have always wanted to collect german helmets, but have always been wary of doing so because of the amount of reproduction stuff available now. The fact i am a total beginner also and know nothing about helmets whatsoever means i stand a very good chance of being suckered into buying a fake. Just recently came into a small amount of money and decided i would love to have a Fallschirmjaeger helmet, ive always wanted one, but could never afford it...tracked this one down and the seller says its totally genuine (although he would say that). any comments on its authenticity would be greatly appreciated. Ive posted the photographs recieved and have had the helmet sent to me on approval, which is why i dearly need some advice quickly, so i can return it if it turns out to be a fake.
A piggy bank in the form of a "Pillbox" from the Stadt Sparkasse Munchen(City Savings Bank of Munich). The top reflects a plaque with the bank name and III Reich city emblem of Munich i.e. the eagle w/ swaz over the city gate and the Munich Kindle(child), the plaque also reflects the serial number of the piggy bank. One side of the pillbox has a slit for coins and the other side a hole for paper money, the botton has a locking device with a key.

I bought it some years ago in overlord1944.com, the seller said that he bought this ring togheder with another items of WWII, but he didn't know what kind of ring it's. It's silver, inside appears 835.
That's all the information I have.
I hope you will help me, Thanks.
