Your 2022 Pick Ups
Another year has come and gone.
Always a bit surprising when we look back to see what we picked up over the last 12 months.
So no matter what you got, a lot or a little, just post it.
*** Let's keep the photo count manageable. I recommend creating collages.
And if a German Helmet happens to be in the mix and it's your favorite, please post it over here as well

My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

2022 was the year of the headgear for me. In my (terrible) collage here, you'll see a Panzer schiffchen, an Infanterie Schiffchen, an Infanterie NCO visor, a minty Pionier Offizier visor and two very nice einheitsfeldmützen. Happy Holidays all!

No WW2 Helmets for me this year. Very odd.
Focus as you can see was Imperial Germany but did finally manage to pick up a nice Knights Cross.

Nice stuff everyone! I wasn't able to acquire much this year as paying rent took unfortunate priority over militaria. Here is a small selection of some of the pieces I did get however, my favorites being the unissued 1943 Flak Fliegerbluse and the "Weihnachten 1942" cartoon poster.
Please keep them coming, these are always great threads to browse through!

One more year....... here are my acquisitions, although a couple of fantastic things are on the way.
These are the new ribbonbars to this day.... As always they all fit in a pocket. I hope you like it.

The simple Romanian ribbon bar (Medal for Manhood and Loyalty -Medalia Bărbăţie şi Credinţă, 3rd Class, 1916-1947 issue) and the double with the ribbons of the first winter in Russia and the Italian-German campaign in Africa, I have not yet shared. I hope to talk a little about them this Christmas.

A bit of a lean year for me but i picked up a few smalls and an SS wedding helmet which are very hard to find.
I have the 25 & 40 year faithful service cross so now just need the 50 year to complete the collection.
