Hi Chaps

I picked this up at the weekend along with a number of wwii German items - infantry assault in bronze, SA Sports badge in bronze, and also an officers carbinieri badge - but i have no idea what it is.

It looks like some kind of firemans badge, but possibly post war? This isnt my field and i am a little stuck.

Also any ideas as to its value?

Hey there fellas

just recently picked this up with some other items - does anyone have a clue what the MPSC was/is??

The title came with a collection of WWII badges from the house of a former major of the Green Howards.

I'd like a scan of the reverse and size of the eagle.

If its small. It could be for a Field marshal shoulder board

here you are, sorry about the quality.

It has blades like the old ww1 british officers badges

any idea of value?

Has anybody any idea of the origins of this badge?

Many thanks Dan

Hi Chaps

Afternoon Chaps

I am currently restoring a 1944 mkIII Turtle helmet, and cant seen to get the shade of the paint right.

I have done a little research and have noticed several slightly different shades used my the WD at the time

Any ideas as to a good type and colour of paint to use? Were the original paints textured?

Dan

Suppose it helps to post the photo!! lol

He is wearing a gasbrassard.

cheers Jelle

Thanks Jelle

were they made from fabric or paper? Any idea as to markings on them?

Dan

Evening gentlemen

I recently picked up this little badge in a mixed lot of badges.

I believe it to be an honest example of the quite scarce Albert Crown badge.

What do you think? Any idea as to its value?

Dan

Hey guys

any idea what this chap is wearing on his shoulder/sleeve?

Dan

the maker mark is Osang Dresden, unsure of initials. S.H parhaps?

Just been offered this item - apparently a collection has been inherited and is being sold

the seller seems to honestly not know if it is real or not

There is a makers mark but cant make it out properly as it is dirty as hell, but i do believe thei sellers honesty and it is being offered at a very good price!

not my usual area of collection, can u guys help?

ps sorry for the poor quality photos, my good camera is in Oz at the moment!!

that trench knife is an awesome bit of kit!

Dont think i have ever seen as much panzer gear together in one place before

some lovely pieces Don, so well done!

Probably a set piece photo

Hi Tony

I can see that they are wearing 3rd Infantry Division patches, but any idea of the regiment, i cant make it out?

Dan
