Hessen Military Medical Cross and Photo in Wear.
The medal is in very fine condition with nice finish, ribbon has a retaining pin to the top. The photo, which came with the medal, is not the recipient but nice to find a period picture with the medal in wear.
Luftwaffe GAB , Hammer and Sohn.
A very nice unmarked Ground Assault Badge attributed to the firm Hammer and Sohn. Badge has the majority of its factory finish and original rear hardwear.
Relic SA Dagger.
Super SA relic dagger thats had a hard time to say the least, its even been denazified after being found. The blade still shows a clear SA motto but i cannot find the maker. Cross guard is stamped for Saxony.
Luftwaffe Gravity Knife.
Good wooden slab grips with some bruising and plenty of patin but no chips or cracks, owners initials scratched onto one side. Metal ring in sound condition as is the front spring catch which is in working order and nicely marked with numbers. Side spike has a clear Luftwaffe mark and is tight to the body. The blade has clear SMF makers marks but as seen from the pictures the blade has lost a good length and been reground, when done who can say, post war i would guess but we will never know as the blade would still be useful in the field. Damb pity but there you have it, good display item or nice restoration project.
Victorian Yeomanry ''Torin'' Field Service Cap.
An early pattern,1890's, field service cap to the Yeomanry, condition is well used with the body material having good nap with only a couple of nips, bullion pipping complete with no holes, bullion cap badge again in good condition. Inside liner has been well used but complete. Interestingly it would appear that the cap was worn backwards with the cloth edging towards the back were it should be along the brow, for some reason the badge was sewn on the wrong side. This is a period mistake looking at the damage to the area were the cap was worn and taken of the front of the head.
