Description

I am offering for sale the first of five books in which I have described the industrial centre of Gablonz and how it operated. This book provides a detailed account of all the products manufactured in Gablonz and the links between the manufacturers there and the rest of the Reich. Section I includes: All the assemblies, hooks, tool marks on the needles, as well as their tips, which are specific to each manufacturer. The components shared in common by various designers. Section II will present combat insignia and their dating, including how to identify them and determine their production period, all accompanied by numerous photographs. As this is a historical book and the internet is not a public space, any symbol appearing in and on this book is therefore free to be displayed (including publicly, if that were the case). ‘Displaying’ and ‘exhibiting’ are two very different concepts. This guide is, for the time being, a reference work on the subject, and my aim is to make identification easier.

About this category

It is the most collected field, and therefore the most faked. The reason lies in the nature of the conflict: between 1939 and 1945, several armies followed and crossed one another on French soil, so that a single département may have seen French, German, British and American equipment pass through. The field is immense, the ways in are many, and the literature is abundant.

All listings: World War II
