Excellent provenence

Aerowallah -

Thanks for showing me the grouping, thor becher, etc. I was curious though about the provenence?

Since nothing appears to be engraved, are you certain the platic Dymo-label "If found please return to Herr Hauptmann Linnarz, 1313 Mockingbird-Strasse" on the back of the Grosseordenschnalle is solid evidence they actually belonged to him ?

Yuk yuk yuk

Mike, You leave the forensic work to me and my Russian friends on Brighton beach.

How do you like my idea of updating Felix's gondola with famous rock stars from the 60s? I think we could sell your picture to a Chinese bootleg packager for a Xmas edition of Zed Leppelin.

You could even do a self-portrait on one of the crew, and dress in Shao-Lin temple gear, throwing shuriken at attacking aircraft...

Just a guess, but Tor may be an older Scandanavian spelling. (?)

Not older. In Norway they still say Tor today
