Need help! Japanese Kanji Flag?

Love flags. Have several Japanese flags, but not one with any Kanji on it. Is this one any good?
What's a reasonable price (USD) for one this size (over 3.5 feet in length)?
Thanks,
Brian

Pair of 1st Marine Division Patches

I am interested in purchasing a good 1st US Marine patch. There are a pair on e-bay from the same seller, but don't know him or if his stuff is any good.
It looks like he was messing with the lighting on the photos, but I will post all.
Any help/advice would be appreciated as the auction ends this weekend.
Thanks in advance,
Brian

ремонтирует-repaired helmet

My fellow collectors ,

Do you also think that the russian letter "R" in some of the LMZ
postwar stamps could mean that this helmet has been "ремонтирует" repaired by the LMZ plant.

I met a collector who is sure that this P (R) suffix means that this helmet has been "remonted".

If this is already common knowledge in the Kaska collecting world
please excuse my ignorance.

Regards

Bernhard

photoshop fun

I’m trying to come up with some new photos of my collection
of Iron Crosses. I’ve tried my hand at photoshopping the
backgrounds.

Here are a couple first trys. What do you think, hit or miss ?

Need help! Breast Eagle? Cap eagle?

Hi-

I was given this by a family member who bought it in the 1960’s. I have no reason to believe it is not genuine, I just am not sure what it is. I am not sure if it is a breast eagle, cap eagle? etc.

what do you think?

Kevin Chomicki

Ps. Anybody with any extra Iron crosses?

1831 short sword??

so, i returned to the gentleman who had previously rummaged through his garage and given me two ww1 bayos, only this time he handed me a sword of roman design, brass ridged handle with a double edged blade with a single fuller running central down the blade, on closer inspection it has two dates of 1831 and 1838 with a french inscription...... i have discovered it is identicle to the french 1831 short sword apart from my sword has 1 fuller and the ones i have found pics of either have no fuller or have two.... any thoughts of what i have??

Panzerschreck RPzB.54 Raketenpanzerbüchse 54

Hi Guys, I thought that you might enjoy seeing this new addition to my collection?

I have wanted to buy one of these for many years, but I could never find one in the right condition for the right price ;) This one was purchased from a friend here in the UK.

It has been deactivated by cutting in half then a steel bar inserted in the tube and then rewelded.

The maker is KXS (Fa. Schricker from Fürth-Vach.)

As you can see the overall condition is very very good. No rust pitting etc. The paint is not original, but was matched to some found on it.

Cheers, Ade.

Need help! www.warrelics.COM - Reliable?

Accidently accessed this site when tryin to come here. Has anyone ever purchased items from them? Prices seem resonable and there are a lot of items to choose from.

I'm not one for ordering miltary items online (I much prefer hunting them down at garage sales, flea and antique markets) but they have some items I may be interested in.

Any feedback on experiences with them would be appreciated. Thanks!
