Got some cool pieces there. I see a Ka-Bar, the long one is rather valuable, it's a US bayonet. I was thinking WWI but looks like a WWII scabbard. And the one with the curved hand guard is WWII Japanese.
The first pic is a trench art lighter it looks like.
The long one has 1913 on one side
The lighter DOES look interesting?!
Actually, I think these lighters were commercially made. They may have been copied in the trenches out of boredom. Any markings ?
What is the strap looking thing with the Nazi Youth Corp. emblem ? leather or what?
The strap is leather and the Nazi symbols are stitched on I think it was a helmet strap
The long bayonet is an Enfield bayonet. The US used some Enfield rifles in WWI although the usual rifle for the US was the Springfield.
The idea of a kid in a Nazi helmet with swastikas on his cheeks like an allies propaganda cartoon. LOL ! The round tin thing looks like a rusty reflector for a lamp etc.. Makes you wonder why that's with the other things.
Ok the lighter does have PAT APL’D For Novitas sales co. Waltham, Mass.
The rusty thing was a burn tray or heating lamp lol it was my grandfathers from WWI a friend of mine who was in Vietnam soon after my father gave me some info but not much!
The thought of our military of WWI with swastickas on his face is hilarious! But I think it’s a boot strap from the German war! WWI
Blunderbuss the strap is what had me puzzled the most because it’s the unusual piece I’ll take a pic of it unfolded!
I took a better picture of the strap and I also added a pic of the actual foot locker!
I am also interested in appraisals also to see what they are worth in value!
Even a boot-strap with swastikas raises visions of cartoon propaganda. I'll give you 2 goats for it & you cover postage.
I would offer you my dog and wife for it but I cant bring my self to give up the dog..nice pics...
