There was an SS license plate on eBay about a month ago. No, I didn't get it, but was thinking about it.


One thing I like about Rick Harrison, or at least as he plays himself on TV, is he won't deal in Nazi memorabilia.

There is a pawn shop in downtown Las Vegas that has lots of it.

I still wouldn't consider arson as a good career move or a good life decision...

Which is ridiculous. Buying or selling or collecting
historical memorabilia doesn't mean you condone
what's it's connected to. If I buy a Civil War pistol
it doesn't mean I love war.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

He probably didn't want his shop to attract Nazi sympathizers or offend his other guests. If I ran a pawn shop, I probably wouldn't display any Nazi stuff either, but it doesn't mean I wouldn't have an item or two in my personal collection if a good deal came my way. Much like I might have bought that SS license plate if I had confidence it wasn't a fake. I already have a North Korean license plate in my collection (which was very hard to get) but it doesn't mean I condone the current government there.

I have a couple Nazi daggers I kept just
because they're so cool looking. That
doesn't mean I'm pro-Nazi, it doesn't
mean anything other than I appreciate
the fact that they're almost works of
art. Mine look just like this:

Your wish is my command. Click on either picture for a larger image.





The quality of this license plate, both metal and paint, is about the worst I've ever seen. If I get lead paint poisoning, you know why.

How do you know that thing actually came from the land where famine, prison camps and brutal oppression is commonplace?

I don't know 100% but it came from somebody who has very good connections to getting license plate from China, which is another tough country. It also isn't worth enough to bother making a counterfeit.
