Max Show

Yes, I have taken quite a few of different pieces at the show and will post when we get home on Tuesday. As James said, not much Imperial to see other than what AofK and Weitze brought. Still as always, it’s great to meet some of our members and just look at antique militaria in general!
 
I only popped in Thursday, but managed to find one nice surprise in an otherwise Imperial-lite show. It was great to see Brian and James as always! As Brian said - very limited IG material, and that mostly from the usual suspects. I'm not sure what the rest of the days were like but, many empty tables early on.

I found a couple of Imperial items

Copy of Iron Times, a very early engraved Prussian pilot badge, 1914 screw back Paul Meybauer EK1, an 1813 EK2, a 13 Hannover Ulan Tschpaka and a 17 Brunswick Busby.

And may pick up a waffle SS NCO visor.....PXL_20260919_015907679.jpgPXL_20260919_015720144.jpg

Michael, LOVE the HR 17! Who had that one? AoK? You've clearly had a great show - congrats!

The only disadvantage to my only coming to the show early is many folks are not yet set up and instead cruising the tables for inventory. : )

Thanks Doug. It's really a top shelf piece given the condition of the core. Just wish it had a ribbon, but those rarely survive

I'll put you at the top of the "list"! I was approached 3 or 4 times at the show asking to either sell it outright ( for a hefty profit ) or to be put on "the list". LoL completely expected given the rarity of these. This is the 1st original I've seen at the Max Show in probably 5 years.

Thanks Jeff. Too bad we didn't meet up. But I'm sure we passed each other!

Yes, the headgear was from Randy and Remy. I think they set up a bit later on Thursday so maybe I got lucky and may have been one of the first real buyers. Not sure...but I'm happy these were still there. They had so really nice stuff.
 
I also bought this lovely piece. But I don't think many of you care about this era so.didmt show it initially.
