Well it finally happened to me...

I had a PILE of WWII German stuff stolen from one of my cases at My Own Family's Antique Mall in Waukesha WI. Sometime between June 29th and July 2nd. They took a 2nd Luft Dagger, a Krebs Sword, a pile of Buckles, Armbands, badges, Medals, Pins, etc. Well over $2K worth of stuff.


I know its a long shot, but the SMF & eagle 5 marked dagger was pretty unique that it had aluminum bands with a deep patina nickel silver scabbard, great look to it.

So if the local WI and MN and IL boys could keep their eyes open I'd really appreciate it.

Also watch out, it sound like this guy has a set of Master keys...

Thanks G,

Thankfully one of the other dealers there is a Cop from the city so he has been more than helpful. And it was nothing super rare, but I prided my self on being an antique dealer with all real stuff that was reasonably priced!

With any luck the turds will bring the stuff into MY shop and try & sell it...

Most of the dealers there have been with us from the beginning, and are older retired types. The did remember two guys spending a lot of time in front of the case the other day, but that's not all that unusual. we'll see what happens. I am compiling a lot for the insurance people, but it just sucks....
