  • WW I AVIATION PLATES

    SKU: 14-197

    $395.00

    This is a most unusual set of three plates that features a German biplane in flight. It appears to be an early war observation plane with a two man crew aboard. The plates are white with a blue border around the edge. In the 12 o’clock position appears the airplane with the initials M. F. S. around it. The reverse of each piece indicates that it was manufactured by the firm of Rosenthal from Bavaria. Under that appears “Franz Kreski Bromberg,” which may have been the store that sold them, but I am not sure about this. There are three plates in the set, two of them are dinner size plates which are 9 3/4″ in diameter. The third is oval shaped and would measure 10 ½” x 6 3/4″ at the widest points. The plates are well used (signs of use in the center from meals is evident where forks, knives or spoons were used), but the blue border and the airplane motif are in exceptional condition. I would estimate these plates to be from 1913-1917. A unique aviation item from the war that was most likely used in an officer’s mess in a squadron. I would prefer to sell these as a group but would consider selling them individually. Please call or write for a price on an individual piece.

  • INK BLOTTER MADE FROM A PROPELLER

    SKU: 24-15

    $150.00

    This is a unique ink blotter that makes an interesting desk piece. The blotter is made of segments of wood from a propeller (I cannot say whether it is British, American, French, or German). The top of it has a hand-carved propeller that measures 5″. The top unscrews to allow access to the bottom of the blotter. This way the blotting paper could be removed when it became too soiled. This would look great on your desk.

    BAVARIA – STEIN – FELDFLIEGER ABTEILUNG Nr 7

    This is an attractive example of a beer stein from one of the early war Bavarian squadrons, Feldflieger Abteilung Nr 7. This stein is quite large. It holds a full litre, compared to most steins and krugs that we see that hold half a litre.

    This stein stands 11″ tall. It has a marvelous exterior topped by a pewter lid. Its thumb opening device features a rampant Bavarian Lion. Engraved on the lid is “Zum Andenken a. s. Kameraden (In Remembrance of our Comrades).” Hand painted on the exterior of the stein is a shield, topped by a crown. It has a propeller through its center. Below that appears the inscription “Bayr. Feld-Flieger=Abt. 7.”

    On the bottom of the stein we see that it was manufactured by Mettlach. Due to the markings on the base it is very likely that this stein was manufactured in the 1920’s or 1930’s, as opposed to during WW I. It is in excellent condition and shows honest age and wear.
