Nice Luger. There is some debate among collectors as to what constitutes a collectible vs. shooter, and some will consider your pistol a shooter due to the non-matching side plate. Personally I consider pistols that are mostly matching with original finish to be collectible.
Like you I have a 1936 P 08 and greatly admire the pleasing rust-blue finish of that year, as opposed to the salt-blued finishes that started in '37.
Congratulations and I second what Don said, it is much better practice to post photos to this site. It will also get you more replies.
