Rare Stuff

Some more pictures from the same place. Some of the items I have never before seen in reality and I only knew them from books.010.jpg011.jpg015.jpg016.jpg017.jpg022.jpg

Re.: "Rare Stuff"

I think, that most of you will not recognize some of the items in my above post. It's the first time for myself that I saw these in a museum collection. I only recognized them, because some years ago I got a copy of a british publication dated 8/45 with the title RED. It's a catalog of sabotage stores used by the germans. Attached I post some photos from this publication which explain the above pictures :
3.Photo : top : 3 german fog signal relays and bottom : german tyre burster
4.Photo : german incendiary flare and at the right bottom : german plastic
5.Photo : probably german Big Orange Incendiary bomb, but could also be another similar looking item.004.jpg011.jpg006.jpg012.jpg009.jpg

Wishing you all an enjoyable weekend,
Bellifortis.
