    3 years of collecting, time to show

    Hello all,

    Started about 6 years ago but due to serious illness (the big "C") from my wife i had to stop collecting for a couple of years. She's better now and so are our finances . I can continue where i left off...

    I mostly collect Personal items like cigarettes, rations, etc... i also like sanitäter-related stuff and the usual things that were very common to the regular Landser. The problem is always the money of course. I'm still amazed at the prices these days. I try not to get carried away to much on ebuy and spread my purchases alot over the months to not endanger my wallet. but some things i like cost alot of money.

    Next to collecting i try to renovate my house which after 8 long years is nearing completion. In this process i was able to build myself an extra room of about 16m² to install a desk, a wargaming-table (yes i am a big wargaming fan ) and of course my 'growing' collection of Wehrmacht-related items.

    You will notice a repro/replica here and there but some things where just to expensive to (ever) have so i took the plunge and bought a decent repro.

    I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as i enjoy collecting it

    A small, shy collector from Belgium...



    An old german pharmaceutical kabinet from Dresden filled with stuff.


    Some sanitäts-related items.


    Personal Items like song-books, Harmonica, Magazines,...


    Cigarettes, Tabacco, ...




    Rations & food-related items.




    Personal Hygiene.




    Map reading items, Binoculars, ...




    Some regular Landser items and some civil items.

          Hi....
          beautiful collection.....
          love the different sorts of cigarettes .... makes me wonder how you can find still unopened full packets today.... after the war cigarettes handled like money on the "black markets".

            A nice range of personal items you have collected, and nicely displayed

            Also good to hear that your wife is on the mend, and in better health now.
