Down the Cellar 68 - Top Shelf

[@Paranormal-Alien]

I love your videos they are so interesting and gives me calmness and soothes my anxiety because all of the other things you hear on the news ect is just depressing and upsetting so please dont ever stop smoking and drinking while teaching us this important history that will be gone forever if people that have this knowledge like yourself ever stop putting this content out for us to see and hear! God bless and long live Mr. Wittmann!!

[@johnburrows1179]

You made my day Tom. Just got out of the hospital and your DTC series was on. Love the videos. Don’t ever change them👍👏👏

[@kellyphillips9770]

When these DTC started I was in the hospital as well with severe COVID and breathing on hi flow oxygen. Couldn’t concentrate very well but I still watched these as it was something that I enjoyed while away from my collection, friends/family. As close to tangable as I could get in isolation at the hospital.

[@davidthompson62]

I love how Tom make us wait while taking a gulp of his glug-glug or lighting up his smoke.

[@dunkirchen1940]

"the U-TOOBZ" 😅😂 Thanks for all you do, Tom and Ob!

[@dannyk1351]

Mr. Wittman, I’ve commented something similar before but I’ll say it again. I knew nothing about the hobby and just happened to see your “into the vault” episode w Alex and I was hooked. I had just finished every video you put out when DTC 1 came out and the content has only gotten better. 2 young kids, a new house(with an addition in progress) has stopped me From owning my first piece, but I hope that changes soon. Thank you for everything you do

[@matthewhayler601]

It’s cool to see the love Whitman has for these treasures. He is just in heaven when he looks and talks about them. The pure pleasure he feels when he explains a piece is truely evident. Good onya Tom keep loving and keep bringing us examples that make us understand why you love it so much. And you too Ob it must thanks for bringing us all the action 😂

[@Bauhotte]

Blade: *exists* Old Wittmann: „it’s stone mint!“ Pls keep up the good work, you two!

[@McYankee84]

I love when Ob does in for the quick close-up only when hes taking a drink lol

[@leonardcroft1467]

Thanks Mr.Wittmann Alway’s Enjoy Your Unboxing Videos .

[@jimrutherford2773]

Thank you Tom for rejuvenating the hobby. I think your candor and expertise in tge unboxing videos have breathed new life and freshness back into the collecting world. Not just in German militaria but all militaria.

[@madaboutmilitaria3630]

Amazing pieces, cheers gents🥃

[@leonardjanda6181]

Looking forward to watching love the channel🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@jelmerroukema246]

Glad I waited till the end. Such a grea t piece. Amazing. Thuringen cuff is perfect on the uniform. 3rd Totenkopfverbande Standarte where the state run Buchenwald camp was located.

[@barryjones8145]

Unbelievable edge weapons thank you for sharing with us. Unfortunately it's quite sad because it makes you realise that you will never own them.

[@euroyank860]

Tha Wittmann is back, full swing and as always the top in the world of education and fine entertainment, for collectors and non-collectors, a pleasure !! A drink on the table, a cigar in hand, always well dressed the magic starts ! Greetz from overseas !

[@larryburwell8550]

Well these items from your friend are beyond words. You pretty much said all that's needed to be about them. For us normal collectors it's staggering. Love that luftwaffe helmet. Thanks for posting. You made my day

[@gebox2637]

That chained SS and SS sword brought tears to my eyes. Just superb condition

[@briandickey7041]

Great video, thanks for all you do for the collecting world

[@edwardlang6880]

Keep up the great videos Tom.I’m one of the few that been in the basement.sold the AH standard for me will be picking up a ss soon thx Ed down the shore

[@johnzeszut3170]

Now the time has arrived to uncork a bottle of "Old Barn Owl" bourbon and take the edge off of the day!

[@ghosted2187]

Amazing! I'm from upstate NY also. Rochester area. That helmet is in amazing condition.

[@MrTruckerf]

I am not and will never be a collector of this stuff but I assume the value is quite high. I would enjoy off-the-cuff appraisals as each item is shown. I like the videos and while I've never smoked or drank I sure don't mind if you do. Best wishes to you.

[@splitwindowman]

I too would love to hear some kind of approximate appraisal. Many items shown on here never make it to Whittmann's web site.

[@andreasp.7228]

Danke für die interessanten Videos

[@scott1357]

Definitely top shelf artifacts. Thanks for sharing

[@rocco74superhuman45]

Just Beautiful . Nothing better to saying . When you did open the SS Chain , I did the same here and trying compare the condition . Wish them own all .. Take Care Sir. ;-) Josef

[@splitwindowman]

Jeez... talk about rare and cool stuff !! So amazing that this stuff exists. If only I had deeper pockets.

[@dondoyle8474]

The greatest SS dagger ever Thank you for showing it to us👍👍 Just wish I had the money to buy it 😖

[@matthewbyam3248]

This tuning in the drink show . .maybe he price it wrong. Lol😂

[@MuchachoMilitaria]

Great show, incredible daggers

[@schienennahverkehrDE]

That Cigar next to all of this rare stuff makes me realy nervous.

[@dkprophett9531]

Outstanding

[@edwyrdkarn963]

We need a tour of your basement and the vault, Please. Have a great day and love the show!.

[@kellyphillips9770]

I think there’s a video of this. I remember seeing the vault and his house.

[@kennethreese4659]

I volunteer to take Johnny's place and help you do unboxing videos.

[@gregomontealegre9511]

the eagle with the swastika sign is so nice display! wishing i could have that piece

[@lynnmcmullen3157]

One of the best carved eagles I've seen. Master carver for sure

[@fragen999]

Mail robbery.What a horror story

[@sravydogs]

Hi Thomas, i would be interested in the Eagle, is it on your website?

[@Engineer1897]

My stepmother's older brother, Erwin Stein, was supposedly a Hauptsturmfuhrer in the Waffen SS. I don't know that much about him. I know he had diabetes, and because of that, had his legs amputated after the War, and the SS ancestry research department was initially suspicious of his last name. My question, are there any good sources to research his records for his wartime service?

[@MyPhilw]

Wow , 👍 great items

[@michaeldellinger8481]

I like watching your videos let me know when you get more uniforms of the German World War II I'm into the history and collecting

[@ramon5061]

This is like the most expensive chapter ever

[@rburrows7786]

👏👏👏👏👍

[@revelation20232]

what did a standard SA or SS dagger cost the buyer during the period?

[@cheapolegunguy]

Don't worry about it, I got another drink too. Your DtC's must be a 2 drink minimum. Thanks.

[@kellyphillips9770]

So, what does a green eyed lion head SS sword cost approximately these days?

[@jimrutherford2773]

Anytime you send anything in the mail you risk losing it, or having it stolen, or damaged.

[@janfast4712]

One more nice episode

[@Nick_B_Bad]

Tom always shows the coolest of Reich items!

[@АлександрЗвягин-л6й]

Орëл супер! Привет коллегам с России.

[@МуратХосаев]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@nathanabbott8794]

Not to judge but smoking around this stuff isn’t that bad for this stuff.

[@johnzeszut3170]

If daggers etc. are exposed to enough smoke and nicotine they acquire a unique patina of age.

[@leonardjanda6181]

Lol I’m getting thirsty 😊

[@BARBQPUP]

Just cant get ennough
