Classic German bringback flag recently discovered as part of a deceased estate given as a present to the vendors father , a Police Special Constable , by the American GIs that he had billeted with him in Wiltshire during the latter stages of WW2. There is a name or property tag to one corner with part of it appearing to be an abbreviation for the SS rank of 'Unterscharfuhrer' ( See images ). Certainly a flag that has ' been there ' with all of the weathering one would expect from one that had hung from a building . The flag is generally grubby with some very slight paint splatters from shed storage which I have photographed. There are also a couple of tears to corners .

A magnificent Imperial German M1886 Bavarian officers helmet having six ridged spike with clover leaf base & a squared visor as was worn by an officer of the Bavarian Chevaulegers Reserve. This impressive piece has the prewar high quality laurel wreathed helmet plate with domes chin scales , square cut front peak & removeable spike which could be removed & replaced with a horse hair plume on parade. Both of its original & correct officer cockades remain to either side of the helmet. I have made no attempt to undo the chinstrap catch this appearing not to have been disturbed for a very long time. Interior maroon satin & dark brown leather lining is intact with typically high quality apparent. In overall excellent condition the high gilt finish remains impressively striking throughout with crazing to the undamaged leather caused by earlier fitment of a cover at some point of its WW1 service. A top shelf piece & formerly of the legendary Michael Baldwin collection.
