striven these many months.
The eyes of the world are
upon you. The

Welcome to Stahlhelms
Military Collectible.
Stahlhelms Military
Collectibles has been serving
collectors and the community for over 20
years. In addition to offering our
help to fellow collectors, Stahlhelms
also offers its private collection to local
schools and organizations to help
educate people about WWI & WWII.
The Stahlhelms Museum
is where you can view items from our
extensive collection of WWI and
WWII U.S. and German Militaria. We
have divided it into five sections: U.S. WWI, U.S. WWII,
German WWI, German WWII and Other
Countries. Each
section will contain pictures of
original WWI & WWII Helmets, Daggers,
Medals, Flags, Uniforms and Field Gear.
Stahlhelms Military Collectibles does
not sympathize, support or have any
affiliations with WWII Nazi Germany, its
leaders or any neo-nazi organization.
The WWII German artifacts that are shown
on this site are for
historical purposes only.
The Stahlhelms
Veteran Page is dedicated to WWI & WWII
Veterans.
Stahlhelms will display pictures, stories and information
about any and all WWI and WWII Veterans for future generations
to view and study. Please visit
our
Veterans Page
if you would like to view or have
somebody displayed in this section.
This service is free of charge.
Air Shows are a great
place to see WWI and WWII vintage
aircraft as well as military
re-enactors. We have been to the
Reading Air Show-WWII Weekend and the
Lititz/Lancaster Air Show. If you are in
the Reading, PA area in early June, we
strongly recommend the Reading Air Show
- WWII Weekend! Another local
to us WWII event is "The Battle of the
Bulge" at Fort Indiantown Gap, PA. These
types of events are great ways to meet
collectors, historians and actual World
War Veterans.
