Gentleman and ladies of the forum, i wanted to get some opinions on my luft non removeable white top visor. It belongs to the NCO grouping that i have and i know that some people wanted to see more pics of it before and i just never got around to it. Pics will be posted soon. Hope everyone enjoys the visor, believe it to be an authentic example, and before anyone asks i won't be parting it from the grouping. To knock some things out of the way first, the droop tail was added to the visor at some point, i feel that it was period done by the nco but there are holes in the lining from where what i would guess was a second model luft insignia was originally placed. The cap was produced in Munich, and there is a mark in the lining like VI- i think its done in pencil. The lining is a cream colored rayon or silk. Its a stunner of a visor in my opinion and has 3 little holes from those damn moths... but other wise she is a sweetie. Hope you all enjoy it as much as i do. Matt

Now that is a nice grouping.
One interesting point about the photo though.
Why don't you show the front of the Iron Cross?
You have the swastika visible on the cap and the tunic!
Go on, go for a full house and turn that Iron Cross around.
This is without doubt one of the nicest groupings seen in many a year.
It is good that you are resisting all temptation to split.
Bravo

Hey everyone, there are some items that were sold seperatly before I had a chance to save the group. The Ek2, over seas cap and flight helmet, and extra white top for a visor were sold before i could seal the deal for the rest of the items. The soldbuch was a heer one with nothing to do with the luft grouping and im not sure if the person i got it from sold that or not but I did what i could to save the rest. What i have is the tunic, visor, pants, gloves, dagger and hanger as well as the ribbon bar and the DRL sports badge. It was my buy of the year last year. I tried to get the email addresses of people who had bought the other items but the person i got it from didn't have them anymore I can throw an ek in the lot if that would make you guys a little happier If anyone wants more shots let me know and i will get em taken, additionally this lot of goodies is likely to be hitting an estand near you very soon. Luft items are not my thing, im a heer kinda guy and especially tropical items, so this doesn't really fit into my collecting field. Im hoping to come up with a value for the lot soon and get it posted on the estand. Will also be selling a M40 SD luft helmet with signs of formerly being white washed. Again if you guys wanna see any other shots let me know. Matt
