Swedish Volunteer Corps (Svenska Frivilligkåren) militaria
A Brief Background…
The Swedish Volunteer Corps (Svenska Frivilligkåren) comprised 8,402 Swedish volunteers. During the Winter War elements of the SFK began relieving five Finnish battalions at Märkäjärvi in mid-February. I the subsequent battles with Soviet forces, thirty-three men died in action, among them the commander of the first relieving unit, Lieutenant Colonel Magnus Dyrssen.
Here are a few photos of some Swedish insignia, medals and commemorative awards plus some other Swedish militaria that would have been used by the SFK volunteers.

There are two types of plaques - the one I have is for SFK volunteers that served at the Front during the Winter War.

Book from Hitler’s Library?
I offer this with no claims, and ask that you assess it on the basis of your expertise, common sense, or just plain gut feeling. But, however you arrive at your opinion, please give meand everyone elsethe benefit of your rational for making your assessment. Heres the story behind it. I found this book in an open-air sellers stall on Albrecht Strasse, Ecke Schloss Strasse, in Berlin in March 1957. I paid 50 Pfennig (about 7 US Cents at the time) for it. I ask the seller about the Ex Libris sticker and he just shrugged and said that it probably came from the Reich Chancellery when the Russians looted it in 1945. He had several other books dealing with WWII that I also bought, several that had come from private libraries, including one from Walter Funks home in Wansee and a very rare first edition copy of Achtung Panzer! by von Rundstedt.
These are my observations: The Ex Libris sticker is aged to the same degree as the paper around it and there is some faint spotting on it. So, my friends, colleagues, and collectors, what do you think; is it genuine? Dwight

I am not sure what this box was made during war time,or where this US unit was?
I was looking for one that was in good condition and was a German used box.
With address still visible also with the stamp.
