SA & GERMAN SOLDIER COOKIE MOLD (Item WEHR 1-2; SA 1-5)
|
| DESCRIPTION: This piece is absolutely unique and outright charming measuring 25 1/2" x 5" and 1 1/8" deep. There are two German Wehrmacht soldiers from the Army band with drum & bugle on one side, and on the other side is an SA brown-shirt trooper with "Heil Hitler" salute and, below, a soldier standing with rifle at parade rest. This is typical Tyrolian-style carving. There are a few wormholes, but all in all, quite good condition.
PRICE: $550.00

Presentation Set to a General (Item WEHR 1-5 & AFRICA 1-3)
|
| DESCRIPTION: This is a great set of presentation items to the commanding general of Wehrkreis V. It is composed of a wonderful cigarette box in 800 silver and so marked on the top. It has the beautifully engraved words Der Kommandierende General des V. A.-K. The box measures 5 ½ x 3 ½ inches and is 1 ¾ inches deep. It has the traditional stamping of the crown , moon, and silver designation '800.' The other item, obviously to the same man is a magnificent bronze eagle desk piece. This is mounted on a beautiful marble base which measures 4 ¾ x 2 ½ inches and it 1 ¼ inches deep. The eagle has a 9 ½ inches wingspan and is 7 inches high from the bottom of the bronze base that rests in the marble plinth to the wingtip. The eagle from talons to the top of the head is about 2 ¼ inches; from tail to beak is about 4 ½ inches. This is a very nice-sized desk piece and considering its former owner and origin it is certainly a very important historical set of objects. The plate found on the marble plinth translates to "The Commander in Wehrkreis V (Army Sector 5)." This is in perfect condition and is quite beautiful. Now the "kicker"! From all the research that has been done on the set it seems that the Kommandierende der General des V. A.-K. was none other than Erwin Rommel, who later was promoted to Field Marshal by Hitler. ‘V’ stands for ‘5,’ and 'A.-K.' stands for Afrika Korps. Also, Der Befelshaber im Wehrkreis V seems to be Rommel, as well, and the fact that a veteran of the British 8th Army had brought it from Africa and stated it was found near an abandoned German tent site just after the Battle of El Alemein lends credence to the results of the research.
PRICE: SOLD
