I posted earlier asking questions about a map I found, hand signed by SS Emil Schaffer. I believe now it was a map given out to Emil between 1940-1945 to hang on his office wall. Everyone on here screams it is fake, which is still could be.. however wouldn't the items I also found with it signify it to be likely real? Are these other items fake also? Or is it likely he was given a fabricated fake copy of the map of it before heading home, and it is in fact not real? Don't get mad at me.. I am just looking for answers and want to price it accordingly. I have no idea if its worth $1000, $100, or 0.

The footlocker belonged to someone that fought in both ww1 and ww2.. I also have a very large panoramic photo of the 137th infantry 35th division at Camp Doniphan.. as well as some bird eye photos of the camp, and a notebook with their hand written signatures. That's another item I have no idea the value of.

I am going through a number of Nazi WW2 items brought home by a US soldier. One thing that has struck my interest is a map. Its large and you must unfold to read it. It has the route Germany took through France.

It says (in German) Marching Route of Adolf Hitler in the Fight Against the Enemies in the West from May 10 to 28 July 1940. In the bottom left I can make out Kartographic Georg Stritt Co. Frankfurt, which is the publishing company.

Then there's a hand written signature Emil Schaffer, SS. I assume this was distributed internally within the SS.

I run an estate sale company..What is the value of something like this? Its a one off.. I can't find any others around today.

Edit: I posted the other items with it in a comment below.. I still have no idea if its worth $1000, $100, or trash lol.

Thank you for the people who actually explained it to me. I never thought it was an operations map, and I kind of figured it was a victory piece they gave soldiers who put them on their wall.

Then there's a hand written signature that I cant make out, and under their name they wrote G/L. SS. A.H.

Did this map possibly belong to an SS officer? Does it have much value? Can you tell me anything about it? Thank you so much!

I have a pair of antique percussion pistols.. AI told me they say CLAPP, however I can't find anything similar by Morgan and Clapp, so wondering if thats not what it says. What exactly is this gun, the year, maker, and perceived value? Thank you!!

I have what I believe is a German hunting cutlass. After researching I am unable to determine the year/era (aside from being 1800s), what the engraved letters mean, and if in fact it is German, and the perceived value. I don't see a maker's mark. I think it says "15". Can anyone provide some direction? Thank you!
