WW2 German General Assault Badge. RK.
This is a late unmarked zinc made badge with some of its silver finish found in places. The rear has its period hardware with the catch being repaired, its my belief this is a period repair going by the overall appearance and patina. Im thinking this is made by the firm RK but please do your research before purchasing. read more
British First Aid Party Steel Helmet, 1940.
A very nice untouched example with close to 100% factory paint finish and again 100% finish to the white painted letters to the front and back, great to see the apostrophe being used!

Imperial German Post Card. Bi Planes and Ground Crew.
Very nice card showing a number of German Bi-planes and there ground crew.

Condition is very good. read more
