Some of the descriptions are hilarious. British / German SAS snipers mask? A supposed tin model of the Bismark from the 1930`s....The ship was not completed till August 1940 and the main armament has changed from 4 twin turrets to 2 quadruple turrets!!!! Me think he is name dropping as this is closer to one of the pocket battelships! WW2 RAF pilots badge with a queens crown! I especially like `the large lump of coal ideal for SOE fuse display`, `sold as a real piece of coal`........Its a lump of coal with a hole in it!!!!!!!!!! Laugh a minute on these listings!

I like the South Staffordshire Tin Helmet with the famous S.Staffs Fleur de Lys crest on the side!
Very similar to the Manchester Regiment knot P.S. Its totally fake in any case. regards

I've seen one with 'OC' or 'Observer Corps' hand embroidered in red which I think was right, but a 2 second look at this one was enough to raise a smile!
