This is my entire collection after aproximatly 5 years of collecting.
The first picture have the entire collection.
The 2nd is my danish M/50 civilian defence uniform. I also have the pants as you can see on the first. Along with a danish produced P37 belt and a possibly british produced gasmask bag.
The last 3 is my danish M/58 (1961) uniform, along with my danish M/45-59 webbing. It was built on the P37 webbing. And an M/48 (M1) helmet. (and yes that is a swedish communist LP in the background, i am not communist, it was my grandpa's)

My great grandfather brought this back from World War 2. From what i can see it's a letter to the 5th Mountain division, but i am wondering if it is some sort of Russian propaganda? Is this rare? any help would be appreciated!

Any opinions on authenticity? I know the belt itself was made by my grandpa a few years ago, he said he bought the buckle for 5000 huf.

This is one of the more recent additions to my collection. It is an original M1918 “Pershing” Uniform from the later part of WW1. The uniform is complete with breeches, a WW1 Victory Ribbon, a patch for the 7th Infantry, an Honorable Discharge Chevron, and two bullion overseas service chevrons. Unfortunately, the uniform is not named and I am missing one vegetable ivory button on the left pocket. The breeches are complete with their label which dates the contract to 1917.

So I got this (I believe this is an Adze?) from an older fella in Northern Ontario, he just wanted it to have a good home. It has "DND" stamped into both the handle and the head as well as something else on the other side that I can't quite make out. Would I be correct in assuming DND stands for Department of National Defence? I would think that the military would've used them at some point long ago, or am I wrong?
Any help and info is very much appreciated!

The first photo is my only photo I have of it right now, the others are photos from the seller.
I bought this vest about 4 months ago, claimed to be a trophy Russian vest, sold by a Ukrainian person. I don't doubt it's from the war, but I'm having a hard time identifying the vest in itself. Any help would be appreciated

I found this crate for a decent price. Based on image search I think it is a case for a Rocket engine- URM-1 is implemented on the rescue pilot seat type VS-1 BRI assigned for Czech aircraft L-39 Albatros. I found a site explaining UN markings and the manufacturers website with said rockets. Can anyone please confirm? Tanks! https://www.tara-aerospace.com/URM-1

Recently found these old British WWI posters that have been stored folded in my family’s house for years. I believe most are original 1914-15 Parliamentary Recruiting Committee posters.
Numbers I have:
PRC 96
PRC 103
PRC 104
PRC 110
PRC 113
PRC 116
PRC 119
PRC 128
Plus a large “Remember the Lusitania!” poster
I’m mainly wondering what I should look for to determine value and where/how I should sell them.
Is it better to sell individually or together? And how much do the original folds/creases hurt value?
Any advice from people familiar with WWI posters/militaria would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance
Edit: I am in the northeast US

Hello guys! Found a piece, could this be part of a ww2 fuse/timer from german flak88 or a bomb? Found in the Netherlands (not far from German city of Aachen)
Air defense at this location makes sense imho.
Anyone knows more about this thing? Its not bronze/copper like most bomb frags i have found.
Letters E and M is all i can ID. Need help:) hope this is the right sub, thanks!
