Gordon Williamson Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Picked up from EBay for the princely sum of 10 EuroThe interesting part is the source, simply shown on the nevelope as M 50759 (=Werkstattschiff Neumark).Neumark was no ordinary non-descript workshop ship however. She was in fact the Auxiliary Cruiser Widder. After her successful war cruise during which she sank 10 enemy ships, she was re-allocated as a repair ship, serving, amongst others the battleship Tirpitz.

Erik Krogh Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Great find, Gordon! eBay has become a favorite hunting ground. It seems that most of the really good items are sold at either way-over or way-under market value. It's always satisfying to acquire such a nice item at a fire-sale price.Best Regards,ErikPicked up from EBay for the princely sum of 10 EuroThe interesting part is the source, simply shown on the nevelope as M 50759 (=Werkstattschiff Neumark).Neumark was no ordinary non-descript workshop ship however.
