Major Peter Parker Escape from Colditz signed cover PM Douglas Isle of Man 8th May 2001 War Memorial VE Day. Peter spent the next five years as a prisoner-of-war during which he and his fellow POWs were regularly moved; first to Laufen in Bavaria, next to an underground fort in Poland, then to Warburg in Westphalia. Caught digging an escape tunnel, they had to crawl out to face the guards. In 1943 Peter was moved to Eichstätt where he and 64 other POWs temporarily escaped by tunnelling under the perimeter fence. Quickly recaptured, Peter was placed in the dungeon of a nearby castle before receiving the ultimate punishment and prisoner accolade of imprisonment in Colditz Castle in eastern Prussia. There he found himself incarcerated with a number of Green Jacket officers, including Martin Gilliat, Mike Sinclair, Phil Pardoe and Gris Davies-Scourfield, members of 2 KRRC who had also been captured at Calais. Outwitting the Guards at Colditz was a major preoccupation. Peter had a part in one incident. The Escape Committee required a ladder. The prisoners broke a high window in the chapel. It was extremely cold, so the Germans decided to mend it. A handyman with a guard brought a ladder to the window. While the handyman went to collect the glass, a prisoner started to writhe on the floor with a mouse up his shirt. A major disruption ensued, and the guard was distracted. Immediately the ladder was stolen but it was too big to be smuggled up a spiral staircase. A saw was produced, and two-thirds of the ladder was taken. The rest was put back. The handyman returned but now the ladder did not reach the window. A poltergeist was blamed. In May 1945 the Americans liberated Colditz. Released from captivity, Peter resumed his military career in autumn 1945 with 1 KRRC in Italy. Good Condition. All signed items come with our certificate of authenticity.

A very rare George III 1796 pattern heavy cavalry officer's sword, the 89cm single edge blade with martial engraving and hatchet-point, so-called 'Honeysuckle' ladder hilt with wire-bound leather grip, steel scabbard with two suspension rings. CONDITION REPORT: Overall the sword is in very good condition. The grip has some historic signs of worm. Virtually all of the wire binding is intact. The sword appears to have been cleaned/polished at some point in the last few years, presumably to remove a layer of rust. This appears to be an unfinished project, however. The sword currently has an all over layer of fine surface scratches. The sword still retains its aged, grey patina to the steel. The scabbard is in similar condition. The appearance of the sword and scabbard could be much improved with further polishing, although this would have to be done with care. The scabbard has several typical dents but overall is in good condition. See additional images.
