Hey Jonas,

thanks,a nice mixt of first and second WW.
The tube is a Panzerfaust.
In front of it, a transformed British bajonet into a trench knife;





and the box is marked truppen besteck, a German WWI chirurgical material box.






 
Thanks Peter, yes the gladiator realy is a super find! It is a DD, RL2-39/21; quiet rare.
 
Thanks.
I can recomend you a WE at the Vosges at that time.
I visited a local antique fair, and they had quiet a lot od intresting military stuff.
I regretted a Garde de Paris helmet, but with a red tail (for trumpet). Allways a bit harder to find.
He asked 1600 euro, with a standard of the same regiment.
A good price, in fact!
I was only ....1600 euro ....short! :wink:
 
Congratulations. Impossible to do here in Canada of course. There are always some small pieces in the antique stores, badges,bayonets, medals but nothing special. The internet has taken its toll also. There are 2 military shows each year in Toronto spring and fall. There is one Militaria shop left there but they also deal in war surplus. However, this business has grown and expanded. The owner says that there are lots of young collector/customers.
