ss uniforms of the willy schumacher collection

[vady]

Thanks for the images. We are grateful to have these things so nicely arranged here. Schumacher used to post on one of the other sites, but was lynched by the envious and the ignorant (or the stupid..) a long while ago, and decamped.

We can only lament how the seven deadly sins are amplified by the internet, whereas some of us are grateful to see things that we would otherwise never be able to see in several life times of pre-internet collecting.

Thanks for the effort to share these things with us and our salute to their owner.

well & truly spoke, f-b. even nicer to see these objects in 'the flesh.' the diff. between them and even high-end fakes is, gladly, wide as a city block is long.

The sight of this material also underscores how these sites have declined in the course of the past decade. In the opening phase, a lot of material and even more knowledge appeared, only then to be suffocated in the obscurantism of the internet know-it- all and blow- hards. So, for those of you new to all of this, take a long look, as you are not likely to see all of this in one place. And the prospects of building a collection are also compromised, in turn, by the rise of the internet bullies and mobsters who make the acquisition and ownership of these items problematic as well, with their digital droit de regard without adequate checks and balances and safeguards.

At least this site operates as a force for reason versus the modus procendi on the more popular sights, with the rule of the lynch mob.

I associate myself with my own words of four years ago. The biotope has not grown friendlier, cuter, and more loveable in the last four years.
