Danke vielmals

Very nice material. Thank you for the images. I especially enjoy your variety of Danziger Totenkoepfe. These sometimes bewilder me. Are there any spares from this east German cache you wrote about earlier?

Kind regards,

Ricky

JC.
The strap's 5th Cavalry - faded yellow. Tresse is Luft. which was not uncommon on army (and Waffen-SS) straps later in the war.


Donald.
These 'cache' TKs still appear regularly on eBay. The original finder sold a huge number and some of the buyers are still trying to re-coup their outlays. I think that once these are gone..... they'll be gone for good. A bit like the Danzig SS ID cache from the late 1980s. So anyone wanting one of these should strike now while the iron is hot, I think. I bought 2, although when the envelope arrived from the US it had 4 skulls in it! (True story). Maybe they breed in envelopes too.


Crowback.
I think the females have the biggest smiles. The moral if the story is.......don't buy more than one skull. If you buy two, as soon as you turn your back there are three of them, then 4 the next week. I think they breed mathematically. But I was never any good at maths.

Danke vielmals

Dear Colleague, thanks for this. I shall act accordingly. I have the problem not only with the badges, but with the headwear upon which they often came.

Either tell those skulls to cut out the monkey business, or at least send me some of their unwanted offspring. Love that temporary camp guard collar tab in the back.

I have noticed that as they breed, there is a direct inversely proportioned 'shrinkage' to the account.
