Default New P-08 Collector

Hello all!
I am brand new to the forum and just started collecting P-08's.

I've been collecting TR medals/badges for a few years and have a fairly extensive collection and I'm very active on WAF, as the corrct forum is very very educational and helpful.

So now onto P-08's that I have loved since I was a kid , I'm 58.

To date I only have my grandfather's 1920 commercial & a complete matching number 42 byf with holster etc.

I've read a dozen or so books (none of Jan Still's as I cannot find them) and watch several vidoes as well.

My question and I apologize for this lenghty post, is what models should I initially acquire with an interest in WW I & WW II era models?

For 1933 to 1945 I would think the more common i.e. S/42, 42 etc.

No clue about WW I models would be best to add initially??

Sorry to impose, expecially from a newby like me, but any suggustions would be so very helpful.

Thanks so much!

Happy 234 Birthday USA!

Greg
