Lot #289 (Sale Order 411 of 876)

14" x 22" poster for Richard E. Norman 's silent movie " The Flying Ace ", starring an all black African American cast. Norman left his mark on motion picture history. Like so many filmmakers operating outside the studio system, Norman tried various approaches until he found one that worked - making films aimed at African-American audiences. Norman was a white Southerner but he did not seek to include the sort of insulting, dangerous, condescending stereotypes that D.W. Griffith was spreading in his films. Black audiences of the day were sick and tired of seeing white performers in blackface acting like monsters, fools or infants; they wanted to see themselves as they really were. There was a strong demand for positive African-American pictures and Norman sought to fill that demand. The Flying Ace is the only extant Norman film and it was the second-to-last feature he made. Fold marks and a small tear and pinhole at the center fold. very good.

ORIGINAL GERMAN WW2 M42 EF64 SD HEER HELMET

Lot #571 (Sale Order 733 of 876)

This is your classic mid war EF side marked M42 helmet with its complete liner system in untouched condition.

Rear marked 0023 indicative of a production date near August of 1942 according to Brian Ice’s lot data book. The helmet’s decal is textbook EF (Huber Jordan & Koener) with the characteristic large left talon.

The Chief of the Army General Staff was the senior ranking uniformed officer in the Imperial Japanese Army and enjoyed, along with the War Minister, the Navy Minister, and the Chief of the Navy General Staff, direct access to the Emperor. In wartime, the Imperial Army General Staff formed part of the army section of the Imperial General Headquarters, an ad hoc body under the supervision of the emperor created to assist in coordinating overall command.

Seventeen officers held the rank of Chief of the Army General Staff between1879 and 1945. The American Occupation authorities abolished the Imperial Army General Staff in September 1945.

Japanese WW2 Konishoruko Type 89 Machine Gun

Lot #624 (Sale Order 787 of 876)

The Konishoruko Rokuoh-Sha Type 89 camera was used for military training exercises. Before the age of tiny digital cameras broadcasting live feeds, air forces around the world mounted large film cameras onto fighter planes for both actual battles and training. The battle cameras were used to confirm kills for pilots, while training gun cameras were used to evaluate how accurate fighter pilots were without having to use live rounds. A multi-purpose training device, this "gun" is effectively a camera mounted in an oversized housing, suitable for installation in a wing mount or waist-gun emplacement. When the trigger is pulled, the camera runs, with footage being taken of what the gun is aimed at, as well as an optional stopwatch; after landing, the film can be analyzed by the trainers for proper lead and burst timing. Konishoruko, the manufacturer of the camera, later renamed itself Konica and went on to become the well-known Japanese brand that merged with Minolta in 2003 to form the current company Konica Minolta. The camera is in overall excellent condition, especially considering it was used during war-time.
