Dear Phil,

thank you very much. I am active in several more Forums. So I know neccessity of courtesy. In Germany there´s a spelling:
"Freundlichkeit ist ein Bumerang - Sie kommt zurück!" which means "Courtesy is a boomerang - she comes back to you".

At the moment I´m a bit busy why I don´t have shown my collection yet but winter is coming guys ;-)

Hi Guys!

herewith I´ll show you the first pictures of my modest collection:

My restored original WW2 Locker; some of that contect are repros like the uniforms:


And this was the initial situation:


Original restored German "Putzkasten" (cleaning box) from 1907:


My restored German WW2 bunker stove:


Original and blanko Wehrstammbuch + Gesundheitsbuch (loaned to a reproduction manufacturer at the moment):



And the probably most value thing out from my collection; an original Postschutz-Beltbuckel (not for sale!!!):


I´ve many more original everyday´s items and many reproductions some buyed, some made by myself. But this should just
give you a short insight of my collection. Hope you enjoyed!

Its like his Barracks room.
