Some Items from my Collection

[Mike Yokum]

Gentlemen,

I'm new here and am thrilled to find other serious 57er collectors! I have a modest collection that continues to grow. I will post some pictures. The General's collar tabs, General's eagle, unit insignia, cuff titles and WWI EK1 are NOT ORIGINAL. The DKiG is also high quality copy. It's just there temporarily until I find the right one to add to the collection. The RK and EKII came in their original cases. The collection is meant to honor the Deutsche Fallschirmjager. I also have some nice period photos including a hand signed original photo of Kurt Student. I will post those pics on the Falli forum.

Can you post front/reverse pics of that EKI combo with the attached spange?

[Mike Yokum]

This is the last I'll post unless someone requests a close up of something not yet shared.

The CCC's...
Assman 1st Pattern Para Clasp
Luft CCC in Bronze
Nahkampfspange in Silver

I forgot to mention that the Lanyard is pre-1945 and was de-nazified by the recipient.

Thank you to this forum and it's members for giving me a place to share my passion and treasures!

Hi George,

As mentioned in the very first post, the WWI EKI is not original. The spange is, but not the EKI. I'm looking for an original combo (and the money to buy it with) but this is "filler" for now.

Thanks,
Mike
