Hi Eve!
I know you hate eBay, but just in case you were tempted to sell the above there, I’m afraid Nazi memorabilia is banned . From the link:
*"Examples of items that will generally be removed:
Items that bear symbols of the Nazis, the SS, or the KKK, including authentic German WWII memorabilia that bear such marks ".*
Just FYI. 
You might check your local schools to see if any of them are interested in having the items as a teaching aid. It might be a bit more interesting to a group of teenagers to see these things first hand instead of just reading about them.
I will make a list of everything I have of his (which will take some time!) and send that to the WWII museum in Florida. I hope they want it–if not, my cousin Susie’s four kids will get it. Those poor kids are already saddled with all my photo albums in my will–Susie’s the only one in this generation to reproduce (though, to give her credit, she’s doing it with gusto!).
So your cousin’s spouse is Italian?
Eve, I’ll take some of it off your hands. I collect the things (along with old diaries, letters of indenture, what-have-you…call me a lover of the antique…just not the furniture).
Seriously, drop me a line and let’s see if we can work something out.
Don’t make me use my winning smile on you.
Hmmm, so now you’re gonna make it personal, huh?
As for the cash-dough, if the museum doesn’t want it, I’ll have it framed as a collage in two-sided Lucite.
May have the same thing done to myself, if no museum wants me . . .
No, it won’t. I employ several people whose sole duty is to inform me of certain deaths. In the event of your death (or Fenris’, or a few others), I will have broken into your homes and taken all your worldly possessions before the ink on your death certificate is even dry. So folks, rest easy. Your precious collections will be in good hands (which will be covered in latex gloves to prevent smudging, and damage from acid or salt).
But Eve, think how cool it’ll be if after your death, they find a cache of Nazi memorabilia inside your home. It’ll give people something to talk about when you’re gone.
Go to your local college or high school, and find a history teacher who can use these things as a teaching tool. The educationese term for these things is “realia”, ie, artifacts that the students can see up close that makes the experience they are studying more real to them. When my brother taught high school social studies, he loved getting stuff like this.
Anything for you, Eve. Anything at all.
And just so’s everyone knows I have my collection of items set to go to the library of my alma mater upon my passing on (with the exception of some personal bequests) as long as the annotate it as ‘From the Jonathan Chance Collection’.
Immortality is mine. Mine, I tell you! Mine!
Incidentally, if you want these decipherabled, I’d be quite willing to do so. Scan 'em or type in the text and let me know…
Well, I’m going to find out what the Florida State Museum wants (his uniform? furlough passes? “thank you” form letter from Truman?) and as for the money, I’ll get a large frame and make a collage out of them. Put 'em next to the Japanese flag he had all the guys in his company sign, which I have framed in the kitchen.
I’ll see if that Museum wants the Nazi food coupons, too—I don’t even want them in my house!
It’s taken this long for someone to post Soup Nazi?
