Wow what a gorgeous piece - congrats Dave! Thanks for sharing.

Hooray on the book - and holy cow what a gorgeous display Bob!

I'm also partial to Orval and Westmalle...both super hard to find, especially in our weird state of Pennsylvania. 🍻

Great article Peter...I can totally relate. My poor wife has pointed out more than once that maybe online tracking info does more harm than good (to me), especially when I obsess over a mysterious lack of movement here or there.

Great addition Coert! And I love your display. I agree with Sander...almost time for expansion shelves. 😺

Solidarity, brothers. Just ordered mine and I now await...the wait.

Great helmet! And an outstanding cat - Himalayan? 😺

Tall and elegant Schirmmütze for a Bavarian Officer of Infantry or the Schweres Reiter-Regiments of cavalry. Brilliant Bavarian blue and poppy red colors. Cream silk liner and ersatz sweatband. All stitching tight, and obviously a higher-quality cap when originally made. Excellent Reich and...

Husaren-Regiment Landgraf Friedrich III von Hessen-Homburg (2.Kurhessisches) Nr.14 enlisted Tellermütze. Bright colors in the regimental color scheme of blue body, red band, and white piping unique to this regiment. Polished cotton liner with “Deutsche Industrie” maker logo. Ersatz sweatband...

I was guessing this was the route, when he phrased it "Please inform yourself!" 😺

Thanks Mike! I'll have to double-check - I thought I only received the usual brochure. Do you think this means he is offering FedEx as a shipping option, or suggesting self-service the way you had to?

Welcome 😺

Admittedly current policies make the US a very difficult place to do business with and to ship to, but Herr Kube is becoming exasperating. I have no idea why he can't seem to ship DHL Express, which does still cover the US, or to offer FedEx as a standard option instead of the self-directed...

That's a great tip Tony...going to search for one to add to my collecting gizmo box!

Awesome pictures of a marvelous museum! Thanks for sharing them.

This is a Steve-approved picture of Steve posted in another thread some months back, taken last summer. He's shown mid-story (I've never known anyone with so many excellent stories), and surrounded by his passion. His son shared that he believed that everyone who "who helped keep up his...

Thank you for posting this here Mike - it is a sad day. Steve was a force of nature in this hobby, and a remarkable man in so many ways. His generosity in sharing his knowledge, his time, his extraordinary archive of photographs, and his immense stockpile of stories was a gift. Our shared...
