    Opinions on Wappen ??

    This was brought to me earlier today. It appears to be fire guilt over brass, but I am concerned over the lack of detail...Opinions ? [img]http://images.andale.com/f2/115/106/869258/1142599197795_wappen_1.JPG

    Time Machine

    I don't know if any of you other guys have noticed anything strange, but could it be that Otto has access to a time machine ???? Or maybe the alien Gus has some time travel tricks to help Otto...either way, be afraid...be very afraid :-?

    Ah! The Good Old Days!

    This is a page from a 1964-65 catolog for the Museum of Historical Arms in Florida. I still have the Austro - Hungarian helmet for $95.00 and the Garde du Korps helmet for $195.00. It took me 6 months on lay away. Corky

    Although I have never liked this style of schirmutze, one walked into my home this evening with the framed photo. They now are mine. Corky [/url]

    I'm a Yank living in the South. I consider both Yank and Redneck a compliment. I've adapted... but you got to love those rednecks. Corky

    Grenadierhaube

    I have one exactly like it. They did remake these for the anniversary celebration and those do have age, but it would be impossible to determine the era without seeing the interior. My guess is an anniversary piece that would coincide with the price he's asking. Corky

    Guard Shako 1867

    Same thing happened to me on a Austro-Hungarian helmet. The new one is...you get a question about an item you are selling, but it's not your item. If you try to respond your passwoed is compromised. :x Corky

    Chas, the same. He lives a few blocks from here and has shifted to Muslim weapons. Great and honest person. He changed his ebay logo to match his new collecting interests, which I can't remember. Corky

    Ersatz Garde

    No marks that I can find. The spike does unscrew. The brads are larger then I normally see, but when I take them off I can see from the oxidation they have been there for a very long time. No extra holes and the wappen has screw attachments and washers. When I take the spike off I can see an...
