Very nice! Is that a PPK in the drawer?

Yes it is Erich, but unfortunately it is a repro, at least for now.
There is also a 1940 nude magazine (Geist und Schönheit) in the drawer.

Hello guys,
The display is almost ready, so there will be an update shortly.
Hope you are not fed up with it.
There is one detail i would like to share now, of wich i consider myself very lucky to find.
I have found a drawing of the cathedral of Antwerp, made by a German and signed in 1943.
It can not be better because this is displaying a desk in the Ortskommandantur of Antwerp, the same year, 1943.
The cathedral is right behind the corner of it.
Thanks again for the nice comments!!!!
Greetings, Glenn.

Hello guys,
Except for a feldbluse to put over the relax chair, the display is finished.
Placed a cabinet and hanged some wallpaper.
The cabinet is 1937 marked, made by "Gebr. Lübke", the still excisting "Interlübke" furniture company.
According to Interlübke, wich i have contacted, in those years, their confiscated factory made Focke Wulf propellers and also these officerscabinets, a nice found they said.
A Pioneer Oberleutnant greatcoat on the wall.
Some new things on the desk:
A "DRP" marked perforator and a "DRP" marked bakelite tape holder.
A German "Agfa Karat" (1938-1941) camera with some period snapshots of Antwerp.
A theespoon marked "E.Reitz Uniformwerke", and a business card of the same "E.Reitz Uniformwerke" (Merksem, Antwerp), not far from the Ortskommandantur.
A little bag of Heeres sweetener for his ersatz coffee.
A Wehrstammbuch.
A company pencil with the company's adress on it, "Adolf Hitlerstrasse".
A feldpost calender of 1943.
In the boots i have a DRP marked "Stiefelspanner".
Also a marked "Stiefelknecht".
Thanks again for the nice comments before!!!!!!!
Greetings, Glenn.
