As requested by Jim, here's some pics of my only FJ helmet.

Jim

Tonight I'll post some pictures of the FJ in the Luftwaffe section.

Rich

I'm sure there are a few of you here with some luftwaffe steel... here's my lot!

Post your's too!!

Rich

I know, wrong area but here's my Luft lids. The M42 on the head has the capture papers too!

Jim

Helmets are another area of my collecting.

That's looks like a nice honest M42.

Here's some of my Heer.

Rich

Does Ebay have something to do with the answer?

Could be here all night if I post individually. So here's a group shot.

My tombac BSW (with the full name marking).

Tombac Assmann

My GWL

Super crisp marking!

Rich

Classic Deumer hardware

A milestone in my collection...finally after years I have a Deumer Observer. I think the patience paid off!

Rich

The latest addition and something that has taken a long time to find... this Deumer Observer.

Rich

Probably my favourite RO/AG. Incredibly slender and made from neusilber, this is an early one. How early it's hard to tell... it's marked C.E.Juncker Berlin SW and not CEJ but I don't know if CEJ pre-dates it or whether both markings were being used.

As an added touch, the recipient's name is scratched on the back.

Rich

Like most , I don't have the money to put into a geniune set of oakleaves so I got myself a space filler...

This started off as a mudane set of '57s in 925 silver. I have some needle files and a mini power tool so I cut and filed all the excess, frosted it and polished the highlights. A few years later a nice patina has formed.

Just a nice space filler.

Rich

Just to remind you what you're missing...

Damn you , Dave! It cost me considerably more!

My only Aluminium pilot badge is this Assmann. Has some wear but is in pretty much original configuration with no repair to the catch. Don't know how I managed to cut the bottom of.

Rich

Not all are a fan of the B&NL pilot badge but I like 'em. I think it's the wreath and it's finish that set's it off.

Rich

Now we are getting somewhere!

My only P/O but for me a beauty and I wouldn't have it any other way!

Rich

I'll try again with more compression to bring it below 60Kb

Nice luft awards you have there. Have you been collecting in this area for long?

What are you collecting goals?
