Re: Cricket used during D-Day?
I'm sure that one is an actual toy that the D-Day Crickets originated from and not a military item, it also doesnt look like its from the Second World War aswell, it just looks too new to me.
Thanks

Re: Cricket used during D-Day?
This type of crickets were made in France during 1970 and 1980 and now are sold for the real deal.there was some use by the paratroopers that look like this one but only go for 40 to 50$ not 250$ and most of the one that everyone knowns that are for sell are fakes.the Reproduction are NOT like the real one.

even if that was real, just way too much money for it, just my opinion.

Sorry all the collectors of Airborne stuff that I know only want the brass one or have the Brass one.They just stay away from the different type because there is not way to really prove it is real.But if you are wanting to see original brass one not a problem.

It sure is alot of money...250 USD.. maybe even the 35 USD but I am curious to see if someone has the real thing ( assuming that mine and the ebay link are fakes... which seems to be the case :-) )

You are correct ,if it is real I would pay 40$.
But the brass one in the hundreds of dollars.
