I've seen this junk first hand. Thanks for posting Paul...
The toilet paper and Christmas bulbs are some of the most ridiculous items ever offered in our hobby. That T.W. associates himself with such nonsense puts himself at the same level...
Also Floch. I didn't see him at the MAX but his buddy from Germany was there with some very high end expensive fakes... Floch at the SOS?
Really,,these guys are grifters, con men ,criminals, pieces of sh*t,,,and those that knowing know whats going on and support them are the same.
Gaspare Well said! Every video TW makes features him and it gets annoying. I really wish he would interview other folks (younger folks as the hobby needs them!) from the shows. I know hter are more folks at the show than Kanzler. TW looks a little under the weather on his latest video. With that reddish nose and tissue dabbing at it and then touching all the pieces wouldn't make me feel confident not catching something! Ron
I have to think that Tom is well aware and wise to Walter just as everyone was wise to Charlie Snyder ........... they all go way back and to the "beginning" and their friendships probably stem from then.....friends are loyal.......... certainly Tom does it out of a sense of loyalty to an old "friend" ................... He knows what he is "showcasing" from his tables is mostly crap............. if anyone, young or old buys third reich toilet paper or tree ornaments, well a "fool and their $$$" I don't think anyone watching Tom's youtube vids says Geez I just gotta get me some of what that Walter guy is selling!" Now in the strictest moral code is it right to feature Walter.... I dunno ....what I do know is that it is entertainment value, and I get a kick out of it...Tom has seen the posts and read the comments He knows exactly what he is doing IMO We have a chap up in Toronto that is well known and a staple at all the local shows. He is also well known at the MAX and SOS as a lifetime member since day 1......... 95% of what he offers is high end garbage but it looks good..... he's a scoundrel but he is an ok guy to chat with so unless "burned" by him we just all accept him for what he is..... cheers and best to all, R
Here a shot I forgot I had. This is several years old...
Just a few of the products made for reenactors... A familiar item shown in it!...
There are also nazi condoms, tiny bottles of issued nazi amphetamines [empty of course] and much more...
Some of this stuff is seen at the large shows advertised as NOS from the war and/or aged very well, emptied/as used etc. and sold to the public as authentic items. You can also order custom dog tags [some made with period stamps and aged] and even fake letters of correspondence [old paper, real AH head stamps!] between the reenactor and his nazi bride!
