Hi Kradman,
Mine came from the museum that was just outside Avranches. The chap was originally a livestock feed merchant and Normandie was his patch so finding kit on farms in the area must have been just so much fun for him in the 60's. He could have picked the stick up anywhere in Normandie, there is not telling exactly where he got it.

Hi.. Totally agree Datrus, I have seen many recovered items and amazed at how well preserved some of them are ( not as many as Kradman ) low oxygen and acidity helps. As for the SS stamps and some of the earlier comments about their authenticity it would be nice to see more comments from collectors who are now enlightened as there originality and their thoughts?
Regards Nick.

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
