Nsdap

Hello This is the best NSDAP belt i've owned. It is the only one i've come across with a cloth backing.

The pair of buckles is a different regular buckle and the smaller size for a brocade belt.

Anyone have a photo of a M4/46?

Hi Guys... I was just wondering if anyone has a photo of a HJ buckle M4/46, in particular the back? Just as part of my on-going education, I would like to compare it to a buckle that I've seen in a local antique shop...
And just one other quick favor... are the ears on this buckle in the photo too long?
Many thanks... Cheers Hansi

Marsch-Zirkel 1891

Hello !

I received this “Marsch-Zirkel” from an old woman. She told me her husband got it from his grandfather.
Its an instrument to see the marching and riding (cavalry) time on a map for a certain distance.
One side is for 1:100000, the other side for 1:80000 map scale.
The inscription in it is:

Marsch-Zirkel
Von
Prm. Lieut. Brenske
D.R.P. No 61509

Does anybody know something about this item? What is its value?
All I found out was that it was invented in 1891

Look at the link: (the uploader didnt work)

Organisation Todt Armband - Good / Bad ?

Hello Gentlemen,
I've never had one in my hands before, would members happen to know if its the real thing or a fake. I've run the UV light over it - it stayed dark.
Opinions are welcome
Regards Alec

grabbed a rear seam helmet cheap

I got a rear seam U.S. steel pot today, even had old raggedy straps on it, not rusty , just a little in spots, but for $9.00 I can't complain, now I have somewhere for my viet nam mp liner to go, yeah I know it don't mean much , but for the price I can't complain. it had the # 18031 stamped in front, I'm no expert & don't know what the # signifies, but just glad to have a pot to put my liner in, yes I know I don't have pic's.:)

SS Panzer wrap for viewing…

WW2 German Waffen SS Panzer Wrap;

Italian Camouflage with Tropical sleeve eagle.

I like the way this looks, and I’m no expert here, but i know there are plenty of then in here.

I like the way the shoulder board buttons are attached also.

The SS sleeve eagle seems to be sewn on properly.

I’ve noticed when ever a person is trying to pass off a fake, or an reproduction, they will blur out certain details, and there is not a single pic here that cannot be viewed , all are crystal clear for viewing.

Any, and all reviews greatly appreciated.

thanks
Brian
