About Us
I started collecting military items from an early age due to my fathers interest in recovering crashed ww2 aircraft, i would often attend these investigations with him and gradually my own small collection began to grow. I also spent many happy hours at the museum he founded at Booker meeting with many of his friends who followed the same interest, from their contact my collection and knowledge continued to grow. I also made regular visits to the numerous aero jumbles frequently held through out the 1980s and 1990s. With all this collecting there was always numerous items that were surplus to requirements, from this i began swapping and trading and with the ever increasing connections through the internet i am trading with collectors world wide. I make regular purchases of collections and individual items from collectors, always searching for rare and interesting items and my stock of many die-cast models will always mean hundreds of items available in stock in my shop. If you're looking for something in particular please contact me regarding your interest, I may well have what you are looking for.
I am also the Vice Chairman/Webmaster & proud sponsor of the Aircrew Remembrance Society.
World War 2 Relic Hangar funds the cost of the websites and their upkeep in full. I thought my customers would like to know that when they buy items from me that some of the money earned by me goes directly to the remembrance site costs.
