Hi Everyone -

- could I have your thoughts on these 2 items?

One is a Luftwaffe 2-fingered gloves (marking I think: "LBA (S) 41") - are they original WW2 (I think might be good, but I always ask here).

The other one is a WW2 Czech gas mask filter with German re-use "WaA" ink-stamp. Is the WaA stamp legit?

Thanks in advance!

I am making an effort to clean up the intro to my Stamps Document (blades stamps), and realized that I have no document or reference book that conclusively states when the government declared that all non-traditionally made blades must be marked with a stamp. Kevin Jones (Ryujin Swords) and George Trotter say it was in 1938 but neither have a source.

Does anyone know of an authorative source, or govt document, which dates this edict?

I bought a collection of medals from Germany recently, and this one is exciting.
Looks ok to me.

At the back we can see remnants of "gold" on the pin.
