Hello folks.

Snagged this one off eBay a few weeks ago. A quick search for Home Front collectibles will bring up a good selection of aircraft identification books put out by various publishers, so they are not at all uncommon as a rule. But what I have here is, I believe, rather unique.
These are a series of books titled ‘Aircraft Identification: Friend or Foe?’ published in three parts by ‘The Aeroplane’ magazine, with an advertisement for it placed on the back of each book. This piece comprises three editions, fashioned into a single reference journal. This was done by an unnamed member of the RAF, as indicated by the handwriting on the inside of the front cover. It was done to a very professional standard, although the whole book has stood the test of time poorly. The ink has smudged and run in a few places, and a fair few pages have come unattached from the spine and are floating freely within the book. The spine itself appears to have been reinforced with duct tape rather recently.
All pages do all seem to be present and accounted for, however.
It also seems that this book had a second owner, who has proceeded to cross out the first name and write their own beside it. They have also made pencil notes throughout on various pages, and the top corner of each page is ticked. This likely saw heavy use with a very enthusiastic plane spotter after the war. While this postwar use might be enough to put some off, it only increased the appeal of it for me.

Sometimes it’s the personal things, rather than those that are rare or expensive, that appeal to us collectors the most. For me, this book is one such item.

Best regards, B.B.

Hi. Does anyone have an idea what this is please? Im pretty sure its British, and it appears to have connections for electrical wire attachment. No markings on it, and it feels pretty solid, as opposed to hollow. I would appreciate any info. Kind regards. Francis.

Oh, and is it safe???

Hi All,

I have recently acquired a collection of military items from an estate. The owner of this gear was Lt.Col. Robert Buckley of The Royal Canadian Engineers (deceased). Of particular interest is an M1 helmet. It is a front seam, fixed bale. with a heat stamp of 362A. The liner is marked Inland with a number 37. There is a small ding on the top of the helmet. The liner is in excellent condition with no chips or cracks. I am looking for any input from members mostly regarding what i could expect to list it for price wise. Any and all input is greatly appreciated.
