It might be over by the time I get this issue published but I had to include that unique Flying Tigers leather patch pictured below. It doesn't get much better than that.
The interesting coat pictured below isn't doing so well on eBay. Well it is over $100 but as it's described as a hunting coat that doesn't seem to hit the hard core German collectors very well. Try the other picks that are a bit more popular with eBay bidders.
If there was an award given for most unusual head gear in the war I'm sure the fascists in Italy would have won for once.
You can't go wrong with a USMC collar brass which is bringing a little more than $200 with 25 bids already.

The United States category as usual is the big winner on the auction boards this week. We do get some stuff cross-listed from other eBay countries but the .COM side of the marketplace is heavily weighted in favor of American listings.
I always have to be careful when listing watches in this block because there are some sneaky counterfeits out there. Hopefully the ones I've included are checking out OK with collectors.
Items from Japan, the USSR, the United Kingdom and even China are included in this block of the newsletter. All these auctions have bids and are ending soon.
Some old Iron Crosses below and lots more listings from the First World War featured in this block.

The first block in the newsletter is dedicated to items from the United States since that's the biggest grouping in the WWII category. You can find many thousands of items for sale here but in this issue I've boiled it down to maybe twenty that I think are can't miss listings.
The German category is the 2nd largest in WWII and the picks here are all getting multiple bids and ending soon on eBay.
Check out the beautiful swords that are dominating this block in the Hot Finds. I use the one to feature items from the smaller subcategories and it just so happens that blades are hot today.
Go back in time 100+ years to the First World War to catch these listings that are doing well on the auction boards.
