Good afternoon. This is my first posting so not sure if I am doing this properly.   I have a set of German cigarette cards noted below:   The "Die Reichswehr" (The Armed Forces) is a famous, heavily collected German cigarette card album produced in 1933 by the Waldorf-Astoria cigarette company.    The set provides an extensive, highly visual chronicle of ordinary German military life, drills, vehicles, uniforms, and equipment (often including the infantry, cavalry, artillery, and ships of the World War I and interwar periods).   Key Details of the Collection:   a. Total Cards: The complete "Die Reichswehr" album holds exactly 280 colored cigarette cards. Missing  the following cards: 100, 104, 111, 123, 134, 246.   b. Series / Numbering: The cards feature distinct numbering, with Series "40" often denoting a specific grouping or publisher-issued thematic subset within this massive album.   c. Release Context: It serves as a visual transitional piece, published the same year the Nazi party took power, showcasing a military that was ostensibly alive and well despite the limits placed on it by the Versailles Treaty.   d. Condition - Not perfect but overall decent condition. Some cards have tears and some have the description rubbed off on the back. The fronts with the phots are in good condition and visible.   Please let me know if you have any questions or are interested.    I wish to sell the set and not sell individual cards.    Thank you for your time and interest.   dbm

I've begun my next project/vignette. Right now I'm undecided on how it's going to evolve, but it will include an Italeri Pzkpfw V Panther ausf D and a Dragon Sdkfz 250/1. I'll figure how it will go as I proceed.    Semper Fi.   Manny

Thank you... It's hard to tell but I was thinking it was 1916?

Original or fake added stars? 

The next Bellflower show is this Sunday June 28th

Best guess is flak because it is so dark. 

Scored 88 of these for 50cents each but adding up the others I bought makes 106 for$1.70 each   Added the belt and mag pouches recently too

Wearing a medium weight M34 Edelstahl helmet, Field Blue with Decal, no doubt a double decal.  Wonder why the Luftwaffe had these. Branch color on tab hard to tell
