I was in a old antique shop in Leipzig about 10 months ago. I had a 30 minute break from work and ran down to this old shop. Under some old newspapers I found this great soldbuch. The soldbuch was full of old documents, the soldiers dog tag and military driving license. Sadly the collection was nippled by a small mouse in the last 70 euros, but thankfully, only on one side border of the paper and not onto the information.
So here are so,e photos.

Greetings from Leipzig.

Are you sure that was done by a mouse and not shrapnel???

thats a very good point !
I always assumed it was a rat having dinner but it must have been some rat to eat through the leather liner of the wehrpass and all the other dodcuments.

It makes it more interesting to think, that this damage was created during combat !

So thank you very much for the interesting idea !

Greetings.

when you are moving around a German flea market, you will either meet the young guys and they don't really care about the history too much or the older generation and they are just happy to get some money for their old things.

Very nice stuff, Ian. Just purely out of curiosity: are there treasures to be found besides paper items, like Iron Crosses and that kind of thing, in these flea markets?
