Описание: German Military Ribbon Bars fills an obvious gap in reference works on German awards and medals. Drawing on many resources from around the world, his own collection, and with many unpublished photographs from 1914-1970, author Mark Hayden examines German ribbon bars from World War I, the Inter-War years, World War II and finally those worn by veterans in the reconstituted Bundeswehr of 1957. The wide variety of construction, styles, and combinations are discussed in detail, along with information on values, availability, and reproductions. This book is sure to be a welcome addition to the libraries of militaria collectors and students of military history alike.

Описание: The collecting of military theater made knives of World War II is one of the fastest growing fields of collecting in America today. These knives are very historical. They were individually handmade by people who wanted to contribute to the war effort, as well as the service men who used them. Most of these knives differ in style and have very colorful handles. This is the only book available that donates its entire contents to the collecting of theater made knives and their values.

Описание: While it may seem easy to paint a three dimensional miniature figure, to do it properly requires a practiced hand and some artistic techniques. Because the figure is so small the shadings and highlights must be emphasized to make the figure seem realistic. Mike Davidson has years of experience painting miniature military figures and in teaching the art to others. Using a combination of hobby paints and oils he is able to create a visual effect that brings life to the cast or sculpted figures. In this book Mike takes a commercially produced casting and takes the reader through the process of assembly, painting and mounting, ending with a figure that would be a proud addition to any collection. Each step is clearly photographed and captioned so that the reader may follow them. While applied to a particular figure, the lessons learned from this book will enhance any painting the reader may choose to do.
