Today’s featured Lot(s) cover Lot 376 through to Lot 384, which all centre around the project to build 6x 50,000 litre fuel tanks at the Peenemünde test facility. The Lots show the correspondence back and forth between the facility itself and the contractors tasked with building the tanks. There is also a superb fold out schematic plan available of the tanks themselves.

Any documents relating to this rocket test facility, where the V1 and V2 weapons were developed and tested, are exceptionally rare; these Lots cover a very specific and important aspect of the development process.

A great chance to obtain rare documentation and something that would lead onto more research.

Today’s featured Lot(s) cover Lots 225 through to 228, which are various second hand editions of the excellent ‘Die Ritterkreuzträger Der Deutschen Wehrmacht 1939-1945’ series of books. On offer is:

Die Gebirgsjäger, BD 1 A:K
Die Flugabwehrtruppen, BD 1 A:K
Die Infanterie: A-BE
Die Infanterie: BI-BO

Great reference books for anyone interested in the Knight’s Cross awardees and the fact that they are in the German language does not detract from the reference information available within the pages of each volume

Today’s featured Lot is a Hand-signed photo of Bill Reid, V.C
Willaim Reid, VC, was a Scottish recipient of the Victoria Cross and he earned this award as a pilot in the Royal Air Force Bomber Command during WWII.

Born in Lanarkshire, he applied to join the RAF on the outbreak of war. After training, he was selected as a bomber pilot, and soon became a flying instructor himself. He was eventually given an operational posting, flying several raids before that on Düsseldorf, which led to the award of the VC. On a later raid he was shot down and became a prisoner of war in Germany. He left the RAF after the war.

On 19 November 2009 his VC was sold at auction for £384,000, a record for a VC awarded to a recipient from the United Kingdom.
