[QUOTE="cjjtulsa, post: 1360978, member: 6146"] LOL! I was thinking the same thing! I ran across two different vendors with silverware with all of the correct "AH" markings. I've also seen sets online (with reputable dealers), so I got to wondering how much silverware Hitler must have really had? There was lots of cool Third Reich stuff, but I just like to look - and as you said, the market is now flooded with fakes. Guy was selling interesting photographs of different Germans doing whatever. Asked him where they came from, and it was from some guy in Moscow and they were "captures" - had all kinds of stamps and writing in Russian on the back....but who would have carried a studio photo of Adolf Galland around Russia with them? Did have a couple of cool Bf109 and Me110 ground shots though - would have made neat bookmarks. Goes for K98 rifles, too; the Russians learned long ago how to fake "SS" stamps to get more money for captures..... [/QUOTE]
