Looking for a ration from the DDR.

Post by roncamp » Thu Jul 27, 2017 12:00 am

I am looking for a ration from the Deutsche Demokratische Republik. AKA East Germany. I have no idea what these go for. Any clues or know anyone who might have one. I know back in 2009 Housil shared pictures of a NVA ration.

basically what I am looking for.

Right, and I still have that one.
They are super rare (I got an offer of $350 and didn´t sell it) as they weren´t produced after East Germany felt apart in 1989. All "Komplekte" (that´s the name of the NVA rations) had a shelf life of only 26 month and were either sent as winter aid to Russia in 1989 or given away to dealers they sold the canned spam/luncheon meat. Dumping the rest. :cry:
