Hi,
Seeing this picture made me smile. I first came across these timers around 24 years ago whilst on a trip to Germany. I went to a Waffenborse on the Killesburg in Stuttgart, Germany. I had travelled all the way there in my old VW Kombi van. I found myself in this massive building with literally thousands and thousands of items of Third Reich militaria. I was totally in awe, but I do remember finding a stall which had a number of these timers complete in the box. 4 in a box, I think I bought all he had which was maybe 6 boxes. They worked out at 100DM a box, which at the time was £33...... totally given away in my book. Thanks for posting the picture, I am sat here with such a big grin on my face.
If you want to see some of my collection then have a look at Home
I am still collecting today and looking for soldbuch and wehrpass from German soldiers from the Channel Islands, if you have anything then please email me at damienhorn1@gmail.com
All the best from Jersey, Channel Islands (Occupied by the Germans for 5 years)
