Are these period officer riding boots ? I assume they would be private purchase.

Thanks !

Somewhere I found the included photo, marked VV (Valentin Voronov).
I would like to know what the Litze means, as worn above the right pocket.
Who can help me out, please? It puzzles me for quite a while!!

Maybe I have information, but then I surely will have overlooked……

I have recently acquired this. The shell is a 1939 JSS and the liner is a 1938 VERO, size 6 3/4. I am unsure about it because I was under the impression that WWII Home Front helmets followed a particular marking system and were either black or white. Any opinions would be appreciated.

I have just picked up this lovely clean 1913 DWM Luger. It is all matching numbers…except for the magazine. It was "liberated" from a German Officer in 1945, and yet appears to have no major wear. Also it has no stock lug to the backstrap. I know very little about such early Lugers so if you spot anything of significance about this one please let me know. I don’t intent on using this one on the range as its just too nice. What you see in the pictures is as I got it. I have not cleaned ot oiled it as yet.
I really like this one, I hope you do too.
All the best,
D.
