John

Some really nice panzers! Outstanding items! Pics bring them to life!


So the firms pretty much engraved for any branch! Infantry,Cav,Luft,police, officers,enlisted!


Navy?

So the people who wanted something done ordered thru store,or maybe factory reps traveled?

What do we know on people who did the work?

What if someone wanted something done! At factory or uniform store!


Beautiful work,Stag is nice also!


Thanks for showing your passion!


PVON

Was thinking on ww1 vets! Or maybe period engraving done! Must have been large amount of skilled workers to
perform the work on all the items engraved! Bayonets,swords,Hunting etc etc!

Wonder if they had departments for ea or 1 large area!

Did companies send out the work to Eickhorn lets say or did many do their own!


Do you as a owner of so many nice things,notice engraving styles or differences?

Thanks for your time!

The big firms had to do their own [?],,,what Von Ryans book say?

John,, ,,OK,,, where's the Condor Leg. Panzer?

Gaspare

I had the 1st book on Von Ryans book but since I didn't find many ,I ended up getting rid of book
at some point!

Like many dealers and writers they seem to not post on forums anymore!

Unless they want to ask members something!

Tom W does video's and had his catelogs, and JR always pops up on forums!

Shared much on chained daggers and types of chains! Rail Rd eagles also!


But many are quiet as a mouse!

Sadly some are just takers Paul..Some feel they have nothing to add anymore.. Some just not in to it anymore...

And,, the dwindling amount or collectors either thru death or not enough young guys coming in to it... Its a expensive hobby now. Great reproductions out there. Some books either new or the classic oldies, aren't as accurate as we once thought they were..

The guys like us are getting less and less every year. We still enjoy it [the collecting] ,,enjoy the history,,, enjoy restoring/preservation,,,, enjoy the hunt!!

I don't have a Condor Panzer, but do have a Condor Luftwaffe.

I also have a Puma Panzer Regt 4.

Johnz, You have the nicest bayo's.

Agree with Ed John!

I have not seen one like that Panzer before! And a Puma!


Its impressive that you share with collectors your items!

After seeing many you have show us!

Do you have favorites! And why?

Again thanks for sharing and letting collectors see thru your pics what you have!
