Go Chase a Fire Sporting
Spring - 2015
This Fine Headware
1950’S SERBIAN FIREMAN’S HELMET
Wowee.., we just had to score all of these when we saw
‘em! Chasing fire trucks was always a fun when we were
kids, and there is a great mystique about fire fighting. These
all metal helmets are used, of course, in terrific condition,
and have a leather suspension and leather chin strap. Has a
badge-like emblem on the front. What we found fascinating
was the reinforcement on the top of the helmet, which looks
like a kraken’s tentacles reaching down. Yeah, we get it, it’s if
stones or other heavy material falls on your head, it won’t
crush your skull. The perfect gift for head-cover collectors!

SOLID WOOD WORK BENCHES We found these stunning, solidly made, work benches, on our last trip to the Canton
Trade Fair. We’ve wanted to include wooden workbenches in our catalogs for many years, but could somehow never justify
the costs! Damned, they’re expensive in Germany and thereabouts. These are made by Sintai Furniture Co. and are every bit as
sturdy and gorgeous as any I’ve ever seen in Europe, except these are actually affordable. So for once, drop your prejudice!

ust back from a trade show
cycle, and my feet hurt. The
worst of the shows was the
famous “Shot Show” in Las
Vegas. The second highest
attendance ever, all crammed
into the Sands Exhibition
Center at the Venetian Casino.
Damn.., why they don’t do this
show at the Convention Center
is a mystery to me. But besides
getting bumped and jostled by
the enormous crowd, to try
J
and see and find stuff, here’s
my take-away: the industry has
gone nuts! Every binocular
maker is now making riflescopes. At Swarovski I looked
at a little 8x32 ED binocular
that cost $2442, and of course
the prices spiraled north for
more powerful ones. Are they
nuts!? It just seems to me that
all reality is getting lost with
this stuff, and we refuse to be
a party to it. Hell, you can get
far superior optic deals from
Ottmar’s Selection here. Zeiss,
Leitz, etc. isn’t exactly chopped
liver. But as you peruse this catalog you’ll find much that’ll
warm the cockles of your
heart. And with that, I’m off to
pillage Europe for some really
fine Swiss and NATO surplus.
Have fun, spend like there’s no
tomorrow, because the deals
will never be as good again.

three felt-lined drawers on roller slides,
one large cabinet adjacent to the

Hevea brasiliensis, or rubberwood, is a hardwood belonging to the Euphorbiaceae
family with very little tendency to warp or crack. Its dense grain makes kiln drying
reliable, shrinkage minor, and HARD! Not only is it a superior furniture material, it’s
the most ecologically sensible lumber used today. Rubberwood is a sap producing
species (from ‘em, we get all the latex rubber used in the world), and because after
about 26-30 years, yields get so low that the planters fell them and re-plant new
ones. So, unlike wood that is cut down for the sole purpose of producing furniture,
Rubberwood is used only after it completes its latex producing cycle and dies. And
clearly how it measures up in comparison to other hardwood is pretty remarkable...

FALLOUT SHELTER SIGN

It is fun to come across old icons, such
as these genuine 1954 DOD FS NO.2
Fallout Shelter signs. This is the real
thing! Silk-screened reflective yellow

measuring 14” x 10”, 11.7 oz
Great for working in a paint booth, or
spraying a basement for rodents; sandblasting; working with solvents; and

throw out the mask and just keep the
terrific Musette bag. These are all
brand-spanking-new; they have all the

they’re comfortable. The Musette has

WATERPROOF ACTION
SPORTS PACK, HYDRATION
UNIT Yes this pack is fully waterproof – even submersible to 16 feet!
Maybe you don’t need a hydration
pack at the bottom of the pool, but it’s
nice to know that you have the ultimate in real waterproof protection for
your gear. The overall design of the
hydration pack is shaped for a secure
and comfortable fit — staying close to
your back and contoured over your
shoulders, but away from your neck.
This unique design provides a lower
center of gravity to the pack, increasing
the comfort and stability of the person
wearing the pack. And when cycling
with the Sports Hydration Pack, loosening the tension on the extra long
shoulder straps of this aerodynamic
pack allow the rider to further lower
their center of gravity and increase the
stability and control of the bike.
Prepared for any environmental conditions, the lightweight padded back and
shoulder straps are designed for wet or
dry comfort. Here’s a list of features:
• Fully welded, fully waterproof
(submersible to 16 feet) construction
• Patented fully waterproof QuickZip™ zipper slide for quick access

Rather than oohing and aahing over the superlatives of each of the canes shown here, let me just say this: there is no better
maker than Francesc Pons, from Catalonia! His varied use and mixes of woods, leather, horn, silver, and ivory, make his work a
true joy to behold. So, having said this, as a matter of explanation, I shall, in the various descriptions, just call out the materials
of each cane, and you’ll see from the photos how they match up.

NAVAL CHARTS OF
THE WORLD As a lover of
anything nautical, when a
stack of old charts, that had
been in use by the US Navy,
became available, we jumped
on the deal. These come from
all over the world! Dating as
far back as the 1890’s, with many corrections made to
update them. It’s a fantastic history of friend owning and correcting charts from
the foe and actually using them. For example, Golfo di Pozzuoli, including Rada di
Castellammare di Stabia with Torre Annunziata, originally engraved and published
in London by the Admiralty 7th October 1890, with new corrected editions from
1902, 1911, 1917 and large corrections 13th Sept. 1940… And these came out of
the chartroom of a US Naval vessel. Gorgeous stuff. These charts are all about 40”
x 27.5”, and printed on very heavy stock. Many have the corrections made by the
quartermaster’s mate on them, in red or blue. The charts are all yellowed with age,
and are very beautiful in their own right. Works of art, if you will. Since they depict
random and obscure places on the globe, with many of these localities re-named,
given the course of history and politics, we’ll just sell them randomly, okay? All in
great condition, with no tears or rips. You get three random charts in this deal.

STORM LANTERNS The Dietzes started making lamps in 1850 in NYC. The original factory building still stands today,
and has been made into a restaurant. But R.E. Dietz Co., has been making the original lamps in China since 1956! And if it
matters, they are better now than ever! We’ve been testing for over a year and are impressed. The most significant and visible
reason being that the Dietz burns longer and is two candlepower brighter. And we’ve experienced no leakage, ever.
DIETZ NO. 30 LITTLE WIZARD

wick trimming. Made of sheet steel, tin plated, using a 5/8”

SWISS ARMY REEL OILER
We know these as reel oilers, from
antique fishing equipment, but
whether the Swiss troopers used ‘em
to keep their fishing gear in shape, is
purely speculative. In fact, these are
pin-point oilers! And a more compact,
well thought-out and made, unit hardly
exists. Hand-soldered nickel-plated
brass construction. They have a screwin pin-point nozzle with a thick seal at
the base, to avoid leaking. Then, as a
cover, there’s a cap, with a needle in
the middle, that fits down into the
nozzle, keeping it clear and clean. This
cap screws down deep into the shoulder of the nozzle to avoid secondary
leakage. Stunning amount of attention
paid to a seemingly unimportant tool.
But that’s exactly the point. This isn’t
an unimportant tool...

ALUMINUM MATÉRIEL
CASES SET Well okay then, you needn’t
be a doomsday prepper to acquire these fabulous, all aluminum, nesting, stacking cases. They
are great for securing any sort of treasure you
might have. We had them made to our specs,
using heavy, thick 1mm aluminum sheet, with ribbing on the larger ones for strength, with heavily
reinforced, top corners made of aluminum castings. This was designed so that you could stack
like-sized cases, without them slipping off of each
other, plus add strength. The handles are made of
steel with rubber grips, which are spring-loaded. The
clasps are made of steel, too. The handles and clasps
are riveted to the body. no tack welding! The lids are
hinged on the wide side, back, and have hold-open tapes.
The upper edges of the open cases have rubber seals, to
prevent moisture from entering the cases. Here are the
sizes: SML 22.83” x 15.12” x 9.45”, volume 11 gal, weight
8.8 lbs; MED 27.17” x 19.29” x 13”, volume 24.5 gal,
weight 12.32 lbs; LAR 30.83” x 22.83” x 15.75”, volume
41.2 gal, 16.28 lbs. We much prefer to sell these as a set
of three, because they nest, and therefore won’t kill you
with freight, and you’ll get a much better deal. But if you
insist, we’ll flog ‘em as separates… (Deutsche Optik logo is
embossed on top of each case... about 6.5” x 2.5”.)

long wooden tripod, and battery box. These Flakfernrohrs have
all been sold out since 2006, but I managed to talk a German
friend and colleague of mine out of his stash, that are as complete

Schweizer-Deutsche Optik We have collaborated at length with the fine German company, A. Schweizer GmbH,
to put together a comprehensive, and complete line of magnifiers, of all types, for virtually any application. What is of note
here, that Schweizer still grinds all their own glass. Yeah, Schott white glass. The best there is. The reason we like glass, as
opposed to acrylic, is that when you work with solvents and get a drop on the acrylic, you’re screwed, because the acrylic
lenses are ruined. Of course we also purchase close-out acrylic magnifiers from them, and pass the savings on to you. Our
copy always denotes what materials are used. You’ll love this stuff.

SCHWEIZER APLANATIC
HAND MAGNIFIERS
Here’s my story… Months ago I was
using one of the Zeiss magnifiers we
sell to fix a detail on a miniature ship.
In the process, like a damned fool
I splashed a drop of acetone on the
lens. Reacting intuitively, I immediately
wiped. Damn, that was the end of a
couple hundred bucks! Then the search
26
began. Yeah.., just try and find real
quality glass magnifiers, that are
aspheric or better aplanatic. That lead
me to A. Schweizer GmbH. Been
around for 167 years. Use only Schott
(Zeiss) white glass; grind all their own.
In fact, make all the components in
house! Aplanatic lenses have more
edge to edge clarity, without distortion
by minimizing spherical aberrations and
eliminating coma. Schweizer does this

steady. Brilliant. The best there is! Each

Terrific new find of full panes of WW-II
stamps, all starring Adolf Hitler. His
mug shot is the same right hand profile on all stamps, regardless of stamp
value. We’re showing the large, 100
stamp panes in these colors, green-42
pfennigs and black-80 pfennigs, only,
to save space, although we have other
color and denominations under one
Reich’s Mark, so ask. Then we have the
high-value 25 stamp panes, with
denominations over one Reich’s Mark.
All of these panes are in perfect, untorn, un-serrated, condition. Great for

Faribault Woolen Mills
Founded in 1865, the year Lincoln died and the Civil War ended on the banks of the Cannon
River in Faribault, MN. The Faribault Woolen Mill is a living testament to American craftsmanship, their woolens are renowned
for their comfort and quality. From providing woolen blankets for pioneers heading west, to comforting our troops through
two world wars, and to this day they are still being produced for our military. Importantly, Faribault pioneered woolen blankets
with permanent moth-proofing. There are no finer woolen blankets made here.
These are made to the same military specification Faribault Mills has been using since at least 1917. Originally designed to
accommodate the widely varying temperatures of cadet sleeping quarters, the “double cloth” construction of this blanket
results in a warm, heavy, yet breathable product.

ITALIAN ARMY ARCTIC PARKA
This, BRAND-NEW unit, consists of basically three pieces. A heavy, fully lined,
cotton duck outer coat, with a huge faux-fur collar, and large, 1.75” wooden
toggle closures (to easily operate with cold hands in gloves or mitts), with a
huge, inset pocket, with big flap, on either side. Then it has a matching,
detachable, cotton duck with faux-fur lining,
hood. But what makes this truly the ne plus
ultra of cold-weather parkas is the thick,
quilted polyester filled, cotton-cased,
detachable lining! The lining is sort of like
a shin-length vest. (No sleeves). And,
as the Italian designers understood
only too well, standard zippers
and velcro closures don’t work
worth a shit in snow and the
extreme cold, and therefore all
closures and connectors are a
over-dimensional, using an
offset #8 delrin 2-way zipper,
along with toggles, buttons, and
loops! These arctic parkas were
designed to save your life, and may
be used for sleeping in. XXL only.

FIRST MATE’S DOUBLE-PEN
Just as sergeants run the army, the First Mate really does all
the humdrum aboard. That of course means signing for shipments, writing up the watch list and etc.. Many of the forms
in this modern world, that need initialing or signatures,
unfortunately, are weird carbon or NCR forms, for which you
need a ballpoint pen. On the other hand, there are certainly
many occasions where the First Mate might want to show
more flourish. To that end, John E. Hand & Co. developed
this fabulous double-pen. The business end is a ballpoint, for
the mundane. Take the cap off, and a fountain pen reveals
itself..! Equipped with a genuine Schmidt iridium nib, for
smooth and graceful writing. This unique and beautiful writing instrument is made in Germany of Sterling Silver (.925)
with a navy blue lacquer barrel. There’s plenty of room left
for engraving (6 x 60mm), if you choose to give this to your
Nr. One, who probably really deserves it. Fine enough for
yourself, for that matter. Comes complete with spare cartridges, presentation box. JEH45007 $149
instruments, John E. Hand & Sons knows a thing or two
about sea captains. While they’re a careful and deliberate lot,
they’re also not without a sense of personal style. Thus, the
new John E. Hand Ship’s Manifest fountain pen and mechanical pencil. Beautiful, heavy and classically styled and made in
Germany. Wrought in Sterling Silver (.925) with navy blue
lacquer barrels. Their sleek, torpedo shapes fit snugly into
blouse pockets, with nothing extraneous to hang ‘em up.
The fountain pen has an ultra-smooth, medium, gold with
iridium nib, and may be “pumped” or used with a regular
ink cartridge. The pencil, a joy to use, just twist the silver
clockwise a notch and the lead extends. These are both large
and heavy writing instruments, for bold signatures. There’s
plenty of room left for engraving (6 x 60mm), if you choose.
Few things in life provide similar pleasure as fine writing
tools. You owe it to yourself, eh? Comes in gift case.

QUARTERMASTER’S

It’s a good idea to be careful when
plotting courses, or making the necessary changes to your charts. With that in
mind, the John E. Hand & Co. recently
developed this unique and fine combination writing and
drawing instrument. In one single pen, with the twist of
the barrel. You have both a ball-point pen, for permanency,
and a (0.5mm lead) mechanical pencil, that let’s you correct
your errors before you commit. This gorgeous and useful
instrument is made in Germany of Sterling Silver (.925) with
a navy lacquer barrel. Plenty of room to have a name
engraved, if you so choose. Comes in a presentation box.

Fabulous & Rare Soviet Russian Artifacts
LACO Founded in Pforzheim, Germany in 1925, by Frieda Lacher and Ludwig Hummel, Lacher & Co. was one of several
watchmakers that were contracted by the Reich to produce the legendary pilot and observation watches for the Luftwaffe.
Both watches employed the 22 line Durowe bridge anchor movements, whose fine adjustments were done to chronometer
specs. They were an important navigational tool, back then, and we are pleased to offer them in our fine watch selection.

SOVIET RUSSIAN CEREMONIAL DAGGERS
Last Fall we had three Soviet Russian Ceremonial Daggers on
our catalog’s back cover. The first we’d had in over eight
years, and they were scooped up the second day our catalogs hit, but that’s the problem with rarities. Our man in
Russia, Yuri, goes crazy searching for them, for us, and
scored some. Yeah.., three, to be exact. One is a 1992 Naval
dagger has a Sailing Ship & Anchor, the other two have the
Kremlin on the scabbard, from 1957. As with so many things
Russian, these are works of art. The daggers have solid brass
ferrules, with engraving. The handles are faux ivory. The
blades are highly polished steel, with the makers and dates
engraved. The scabbards are made of leather-covered wood,
with brass. The daggers lock into the scabbards and release
with thumb pusher buttons. The price is steep but fair, considering there aren’t any out there! 13.5” x 3.25”, 10.2 oz

GERMAN NAVY SHIP’S
RADIO-ROOM CLOCKS
ca.1960’s
Genuine, bona-fide surplus 1960’s German Navy radio-room,
bulkhead mounted 8-day ship’s clocks. Made by two famous
German clockmakers, Bürk and Junghans, made with a nickel-plated brass housing, with watertight, hinged bezel with a
screw-bolt lock. Has a 7-jewels, 8-day movement, with hour,
minute, and sweep second hands. You key-wind it on the
face, where there’s also the slow-fast adjustment. Both
clocks have the two three-minute radio-silence markings in
red, and the Junghans also has the green listening markings,
per the International standards for the use of 500 kHz, which
first appeared in the second Berlin International Radio-telegraphic Convention, which was signed November 3, 1906
and became effective July 1, 1908. The second Service
Regulation affixed to this
Bürk
Convention designated 500 kHz as one of the
standard frequencies to be employed by shore
stations. All of these clocks were thoroughly
checked out by our German clockmaker, and
run beautifully. All have some discoloration and
scratches on the dial and case, due to their
long service life in the Navy. The clocks measure overall about 8.6” Ø back x 3.5” deep x 7”
Ø front and weigh about 3 lbs 11.5 oz.
All come with a key, of course.

As of 1 November 2013, we will not accept any returns of any Timepieces
after a customer’s inspection period of five (5) days from the ship date.
Hence, a 5 Day Return Policy. Here’s why… We ship all new Timepieces,
fully inspected and running properly by our knowledgeable staff. The
Timepieces are fully wound-up, and set for the customer’s local time, and
sent per 2-Day express/insured service, so you should have plenty of time to
either Love or Hate it… So please don’t wear/carry the timepiece for a
week, or more, risk banging it against doorframes, or whatever, and then
expect us to take it back! If you Hate it, simply return it, unused and
unworn, at your cost. (We suggest insuring it for its full value). All new
Timepieces sold by us are guaranteed by their makers for 24 months, and
therefore all warranty claims are handled by the Makers, or their authorized
repair facilities, not us. Each Timepiece has its respective certificate
instruction warranty card or booklet with it. There you will find the
addresses and telephone numbers of the makers. Remember: taking the
Timepiece to an unauthorized repair facility voids all warranties!
All Timepieces we sell are mechanical, unless otherwise noted. Mechanical
means either manual-wind or automatic (self-winding). Being mechanical
devices, they’ll never have the dead-on accuracy of quartz or atomic
clocks/watches. That simply isn’t possible… How active you are, how you
place your watch on the nightstand, temperature, and magnetic fields, all
argue against perfection! If your Timepiece gains a few seconds/minutes
over a noticeable period, try laying it out differently at night when you take
it off. Face down; face up; on left edge; on right edge. If you use a watch
winder, all bets are off, and you’ll just have to re-set the time manually.
In order to get the proper power reserve out of a mechanical watch,
(typically 38-42 hrs), you must first fully wind the mainspring, gently! You’ll
feel it tighten up before it’s fully wound. This is especially true of automatic
(self-winding) watches. You must fully wind it before wearing.
No matter what, always handle a Timepiece, its crown and pushers and
stoppers gently. There’s no need to force anything, on so small a machine!

EXTREMELY RARE..! CARL ZEISS/JENA
NOBILEM 12X50B SPEZIAL c.1984 / 1985
In the years between 1980-1985 only 600 of these
monster, wide angle porroprism units were built,
making them the second rarest of all Zeiss binoculars!
Made in the DDR, these glasses had a 5.5º field of
view, more than any comparable glasses at the time!
Moreover, they retailed at more than twice of what the
physicist that designed them made per month, bring
on the curtailment in production. This glass has center
focus, with rubber eyecups and the original leather
strap, and a fantastic,
fitted leather case.

Wow, terrifically done, highly detailed, in beautiful colors, this is the cross-section of the motor
ship Willem Ruys. Her keel was laid down January 1939 at the De Scheide yards in Vlissingen,
but with the outbreak of the war construction was halted, and she lay on the slipway. After the
war it was decided to complete her, becoming a matter of national pride. She was launched and
christened on the first of July 1946. On December 2, 1947 the 631’ long, twin screw, 21,119
grt, powered by eight Sulzer diesels producing 27,000 shp, with a top speed of 22 knots, sailed
on her maiden voyage from Rotterdam to Indonesia. In
January 1965 she was officially handed over to Italy’s
Flotta Lauro, refitted and re-christened the Achille
Lauro. Printed on heavy stock and mounted on MDF
wood, hand-varnished and comes complete with
hanging hardware. A large piece, but so glorious!
