Customer feedback

Your book just arrived today. What an outstanding job! This is by far and away the best recitation of colonial uniforms (and some others) that I have seen. I am glad that you did the research necessary to do a thorough job. I would love to meet some of the other collectors who helped you some day. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coat arrived safe and sound Thursday afternoon (now that's quick!). See enclosed pictures. Coat is really good! I have never seen a coat with the 1915 Zapon coated painted zinc plated steel buttons. And I have never seen a 136 marked length coat, the largest, one normally sees are the 130's. So this size is just fantastic! It's taken 18 months to find a large coat that was not full of holes, shortened or had lost the cuffs. In fact there really seems to be a shortage this year of any size coats in any condition. Now I need some boots, and a breadbag strap for starters and then the rest....gasmask, fieldflask, bayonet, canteen etc Also maybe some shoulder straps for 77th regiment (Celle)as the nearest Xth armee korps regiment to Luneburg --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The tunic arrived last Friday as I was leaving town -- did not get a chance to inspect it until yesterday. It is simply fantastic and I thank you very much for this item. My impression is that this coat would have been worn with a dress sword and white trousers. If you have any idea on what sort of sword I should keep an eye out for, I'd appreciate it. Many thanks again for this wonderful addition to my collection. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I received the helmet yesterday and it arrived in good shape. Everything looks good. I also purchased your reference books. I have just started looking through them. As a militaria collector, I really enjoy the color photos of the helmets, uniforms, and equipment. With all the WWI period photos in black and white, it is nice to see original items in color. I collect WWI German spiked helmets, WWII German and U.S. steel combat helmets, and WWII RAF, Luftwaffe, and U.S. flight helmets and accessories. I am just starting to collect WWI aviation related items. Thanks for the helmet. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The helmet arrived yesterday and I was excited to get it.It's very,very nice.I really like it and have been looking at it. I'll check back with you soon to see what you still have available from your collection. Thank You. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TUNIC ARRIVED SAFE TODAY, YOUR POST IS FAST. YOU HAVE A GOOD POST SERVICE ! . IT IS A SUPER TUNIC. I COLLECT JUST DUNKELBLAU TUNICS, DO YOU HAVE ANY MORE ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
