Neatest P.38/P.08 display I have ever come across!

My friend and super collector of P.38 and P.08 pistols put this display up for a contest at the Dallas Market Hall gunshow a month or so ago. It had to be the nicest and most intricate display I have seen.

My photos aren’t the best because I couldn’t really get the right angles (and I only had my ipad to work with) to do photos justice. The display had Walther P.38’s from beginning to end, P.08 Mausers, a neat K.98k byf43 rifle, daggers, a couple of helmets and a Wehrmacht uniform:

Some rare birds in there! The P.08’s and P.38’s were all with their numbered matching mags and proper accessories.

* Even look terrific upside-down!!
* 2nd O/All Best in Show @ 2018 NRA Collector's Show in conjunction with the Dallas Arms Collectors Assoc.
* Browning Collector Assoc. display (wall) took 1st O/All and was also a tremendous educational highlight.
* Amazing how little press these displays received in the NRA pubs and website.
* Thanks Kelly for the pics.

Hahahaha, yes, I wanted to show both right side up and upside down views. For some reason when I take photos with my ipad and post them, they get posted upside down. So, I posted these and forgot that happens. I had to go back and edit my photos and repost them so they would be right side up....but it left the original upside down photos also. Strange. And, it happens on other forums too.

My photos didn’t do the display justice. I think my Nikon camera and maybe different angles may have done better but I worked with what I had.
 
I hope he won... anyone who has even thought about doing this knows the work it takes to do this ...
 
Fantastic display, K date with with proper tool, rod, holster! Really like that 37 strawed too, one in that condition is next to impossible to find.
