Hello,

I acquired the photographed SS Kannister / Jerry Can below today. It is Sandrik marked. Sandrik was a Czech Company during WWII and the only maker to my knowledge. This one is in great shape and from what I can tell it looks to be the original paint. Hope you like.

Points checked before my purchase:

- Red enamel throat
- Fully welded handle
- Correct hole placement in lid latch
- Round vent tube in the throat is essential for an original kannister.
- No Daisy mark stamp on cap lid.
- Font / Type on front of kannister is correct compared to the reproductions I have seen.

Hi all,

I have this EK I in my collection.

It has the magnetic core and it is marked "J16" but I do not have any idea which maker it is from.

Please, could you give me your opinions?

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Alex.

Acquired this M-41 Reichsbahn Visor Up today to go with my Reichsbahn Collection. Ludwig Vögele made the cap for the DRB Kleiderkasse in 1942. A nice paper maker label for Ludwig Vögele inside cap is named to the owner Peter Volker and his station unit he was assigned to Mannheim Hauptbahnhof. Some wear to sweatband but overall pretty clean with no mothing.

This is my 4th visor in 30+ years of collecting and 4th in past 2 years. I have have learned much about them from the crew here on WRF and growing fond of them as accents in the collection so thank you guys. Stonemint you are amazing and I read and learn from your threads and period in wear photos all the time. A big thanks to you for your hard work, organization, counsel and help to us all.

Enjoy the Day!
