A minesweeper for Rüdiger

[Seewolf]

With a BIG thanks to our friend Thomas... i finally could get this piece i wanted for so long
There´s nothing more to say about this one, you saw it in Thomas thread but i made some new photos to show the beauty of this badge

...and so my wishlist is getting smaller and smaller

P.S. I´m using a new background, think that looks better

Aaaahhhh.... it is a thing of beauty, doubt you could get a nicer example!! As soon as i saw this one i thought .... Rudiger
Glad to see it found its way into the collection of someone who can really appreciate it!!! Well done!!!! -Nigel

[Seewolf]

Thanks Nigel,
you said my name was on it.......YOU WERE RIGHT

[Matthieu]

It has your name written all over it, Rüdiger . Glad you were able to find a nice & early specimen. It has been on your wanted list for quite some time.

This is also another good example of the solidarity and friendship between the members of the 1957 forum .

[Seewolf]

Thanks Mathijs,
i always appreciate your comments

You´re right, i think is doesn´t get better than here - not too much people, familiar and everyone trustworthy without a doubt

WHOOHOO, finally
You found a nice filer for one of your gaps in your collection.

I remember it surprised me that I couldn't see that it was not burnished when Thomas posted it and you thought it was.
With these pictures I am still not convinced.

[Seewolf]

Thanks Luud,
yes, one more gap filled with a very early one...only 6 gaps by KM awards left

It´s not much burnished, only a little bit on some parts. But i have a very early destroyer which is not burnished anyway. Seems S&L did that not at all pieces.



As a little gift pic here is a shot of my little collection, not so much, but i love every piece of it and all pieces are never for sale.

P.S. The EK II is a wartime "100"er Wächtler & Lange, you know the always fantastic condition of these....

Wonderful Rudiger!

I'm very happy for you! This has been an elusive badge for you and now you're dream has come true!

Look what you've done in recent months with your beautiful RK and now this great minesweeper! Rock on KM King!!!

Fantastic collection my friend and a wonderful display!

Oh yes, I like your new background material too!

[Nigel N]

Really great collection Rudiger, it seems to have worked out well, that we all have our own areas of collecting! wether its KM, FJ, RK's, DK's or EK's!!
We've seen some very nice pieces today and some storming collections!!
Long live the 57ers!!!!!!!!mj06.gif -Nigel

[LuckyLuudje]

O no, not an overview of the collection again.
I hope the remaining members won't because these pictures are not good for my heart

You also have a nice quality collection Rudiger

Nice addition to your collection, Rüdiger. Congratulations.
Killer display you have there. Very nice. I only have a few rykers in a drawer. I'm hoping to have such a display some day.
But this may still take 20 years. Or how long does it take kids to leave the parental house?

Best regards
