[Below: This is a silk... a silk something, I'm not really sure what this was used for, but it sure is neat.]

[Below: This strange thing is a large card. On the inside it says Upper Silesia 1921. Upper Silesia was stolen from Germany after the Versailles Treaty following World War One. The card, in English, shows Allied soldiers sitting under a road sign, one pointing to Germany, showing industry, with a well-dressed man with his hat out, while the other, pointing to Poland, has a caricature of a Jew with his hand out and a primitive village behind him. This card was obviously for English speakers, but who exactly I do not know. It is very interesting.]

[Below: This is incredible to see this! For years I've seen the stamp this is based on and now to see the original art is very neat. This is a trial presentation and is extremely rare. This is made from a very thin cloth-like paper. As you can see these sheets are water damaged, but when dealing with something so rare it isn't really much of an issue.]

[Below: This little pocket book is called 'Sturm=und Kampf=Lieder für Front und Heimat' (Storm and Battle Songs for the Front and Home). It has 126 pages of various songs. Click to see within!]

[Below: Front and reverse. This tiny book is called 'Wehrmacht Merkbuch 1945' (Wehrmacht Handbook 1945) published by 'Herausgegeben vom NS-Führungsstab der Wehrmacht' (Published by the NS Leadership Staff of the Wehrmacht). The reverse of the book reminds soldiers 'Schweigt und warnt jeden der schwatzt: pst!' (Be silent and warn everyone who chatters: shh!). This is a really neat book and tiny! It would fit in the palm of your hand. It was difficult to scan since the pages don't open wide, so I did my best to give you an idea of the material within. This book has a little bit of everything; a day planner, calendars, facts and information of all kinds. Click the image to see a lot more.]
