My collection

[Vegard T]

Oh well, I'll keep it around until I get a replacement. It was quite cheap, so I didn't lose that much money on it. Thanks for the reply

Btw: Keep me posted if you find anything in the list I sent you. Thanks again

Vegar,I'll work on your list when you have your finances in order. Rich A. in Pa.

[Vegard T]

Thanks Rich. I think I'll start buying things again after my trip to Poland next week.

I went to a fleamarket today, there wasn't that much, but I did get this very nice Swedish-Norwegian Union flag for only 2$!




Framed:


I later went to an antique sale and got me two helmets.

If I am not mistaken, this is a Danish M48 M1 helmet clone, I like to use them as WW2 M1 helmets in my collection on uniforms etc, there is not much difference between them:












And an Austrian M1 clone(If I am not mistaken?), I later decided to put my vietnam helmet cover on it for funsies, I think they had a similar model in use?:

I also did a little switiching and got a nice little display case for my American patches/medals:

I have just returned from my trip to Krakow, Poland(I'll try to get a separate thread up after I sort out all the pictures). I did not have any time to visit any militaria/antique stores(Not that many around that had anything interesting).

I am exhausted from the long travel and after having to fight for a couple of hours against a spambot which had taken over my email , a good nights sleep will be great.

I look forward to pics.
Krakow is a nice city and I have fond memories from there (though getting a hotel room without having a reservation during Easter was ... interesting! Ahh well, thats the price for being spontaneous).
I hope you managed to get to see some of the museums while there.
They have some nice militaria collections, especially if you are into history like I am.
After all, Poland played a pivotal role in European history...a fact later generations sadly tend to forget.

It has been pretty quiet here for a bit, so why not share my finds from a Militaria and Arms fair today:

Mosin Nagant:


No.36 Grenade:


Kongsberg Colt holster:


Norwegian gaiters:


Norwegian foot cloth:


Details will be in a different thread.

Is that a genuine LSSAH cufftitle?
