Really interesting invoices. If my conversion rates are correct, then around $22 US or £5.50 for the army dagger at the time.
A tidy sum if you consider that the UK average annual salary in 1941 was only £296.76 !

Top stuff Ronnie, you did well coming on to them.
Il have a better look at them tomorrow but is that 2 reichmarks (and 88 reichspfennigs) for a hitler youth knife?

Thanks for showing, never seen this kind of paperwork before, and it sure would make a nice display with a dagger on top of it!
