Cipi forget to write that those are my pics and like usual it's imposib. to post them.
The Leika is authentic.
The question is if the engravement on the back is real.

I am far of being an expert, but the eagle with swastika looks amateurish to me.

P.S. C-2, are the handcuffs also yours? biggrin.gif

This was discussed on other forums.

Most of those who have this camera that apparently was "owned by the general" seem to have purchased it in Bulgaria. Does this particular camera have anything to do with Bulgaria?

Someone else has one. Did the general "own" more than one?

Denes, never mind the handcuffs, how about the knuckleduster? wink.gif

The bulgarians are doing it as well. Speciallizing in brass and metal work.

Well,the eagle looked strange to me also.
But the camera is original.
It was for sale in Bulgaria.

Denes,I had a friend who had a pair of handcuffs.
He asked his girlfriend to tie him during intercourse to a radiator,and so she did.
He's a big guy.
And by mistake,he pulled out the pipe.
The apartment was filled in minutes with rusty water.
Since then I,m avoiding that stuff.

Don't tell anyone ok?
Once I used the same pair of handcuffs myself and it also ended in a disaster.
I handcuffed a certain girl with them .Hands on the back.
And I was sure she's screaming from pleasure.
Unfortunatly,her skinny hands had to suport bouth our weights.
Actualy she was screaming from pain made buy the hancuffs who lesft marks for many days on her wrists.
DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!

Also from Bulgaria.
Looks fake to me.
The paper was as new.

Posted by: Theodor July 11, 2009 01:46 pm
I would be very surprised if the Arbeitsbuch is fake! It is something very common and not expensive, who would go for the trouble to make all those entries and stamps - and the book itself.

Posted by: C-2 July 11, 2009 04:31 pm
I was thinking the same.
But it's like new.
It's imposib to conserv a paper so perfect for so long time.
