Bomber Jacket Art
IIRC, Eric (Cirlaw) and others here have an interest in WW-II uniform jackets and artwork... Ran across this article recently, and though I'd share it...
http://www.collectorsweekly.com/arti...ened-our-boys/ Another article on this site has an interesting discussion on collecting German Third Reich memorabilia. It discusses the sensitivities of displaying swastika marked items from collections... http://www.collectorsweekly.com/arti...-collect-nazi/ Marc

I bought this for ten buck at a gun show! I generally have nothing to do with the Nazis except for my 1937 Kriegoff!

The OSS produced a version of that Hitler stamp, which showed his jaw and eye socket area as a skeleton. I guess it was meant as a psych-op to upset superstitious Hitler supporters.
These are very rare today. |
