Holocaust Artifacts (NSFW)

Hello,

I thought that these would be interesting to some of you. My mother used to be a university lecturer on holocaust media and literature/ history. She collected these items in the 90s/ early 2000s to use in her lectures. On top of these she has countless letters and tapes of interviews and correspondence with holocaust survivors which i am yet to listen to/ read.

I am sure it is not all authentic as i am aware of quite how rare artefacts of these nature are, though despite that they are still interesting and useful to show the darker side of human history.

(apologies that the photos are not great)

As far as i am aware included in the photos are -

- a cutting from a concentration camp uniform
- concentration camp currency
- red triangle pin for prisoners of war kept in concentration camps
- letters sent from concentration camps to convince relatives to come
- dachau arm band (i am not certain it is authentic)
- copy of edek's (well known holocaust victim) concentration camp mug shots
- art drawn by a survivor of bergen belsen
- original photos taken by allied forces upon liberating a concentration camp

Price check/ Information!

Hello! recently acquired this absolute monster. Suuuper heavy and plays very nicely.

Unfortunately it is far too heavy for me and i'd like to move it on to someone who would play it more.

Any information about value and model would be much appreciated!

Thanks

Is this fake?

Hello - my grandfather has been in possession of this for a while. I don't think he paid hugely for it. Before you all say it - i know it has a horrible flag on it, which is a shame as even if it is fake it's not a bad axe.

I've gone through a lot of the traditional fake checks and it's inconclusive - as the only ones where it varies can be due to custom shop requests.

I posted this earlier but the photos were not good enough. If it is real i will sell it and buy a butterscotch tele.

Bought a bundle of 4 lighters today off facebook marketplace for £6. I was expecting a few knock off zippos to put on a shelf. But these were in there! £2 each! I am a very happy man lol.

Weatherman CS repair query

Hello! My Leatherman CS tool has recently stopped being useful. This part here has shifted rendering the scissors on it completely useless as whenever i try and use them it ends up like photo 2. Any advice on how i can go about fixing it would be greatly appreciated!

What i've tried to far is using a small pick to pull it back into its correct position. That didn't really work as it almost immediately shifted again.

Thanks!

Hello!

Here's my collection of clippers, amassed over the last 4 years (ish) mainly from the floors of the nightclub i work in, and the streets i wander around!

Very common to find damaged ones, so i'll usually use the plain monocolours as donor lighters to repair the damaged ones with designs.

Thanks for looking!

New to zippo but not new to collecting lighters (i've collected discarded clippers and repaired them for a number of years! i'll pop a pic in the last slide). I mentioned an interest in zippo lighters to a family member and was gifted these and i've been doing some research on them, but have struggled to find much on a couple of them. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks :)

▲ 10 r/airguns

Hello!

I've recently been given a walther cp99 air pistol. It's brand new, never been shot but i've been told that the reason for that, is due to the fact it's had an air leak since factory. It's been sat in an attic for at least a decade since then and i thought i might try and have a crack at it.

I am a complete novice with all things relating to air gun repair.

Any advice on where to start on diagnosing the issue, what the most likely issue/ any o rings i might need would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
