Apparently, there were numbers of old weapons which were true antiques among the prop items used in old films, and some collectors and dealers had a field day!!!
Hi Jim,

Well, first thank you for your kind comments.
Let's say that Holstein catalogue contains also Persian and Ottoman arms...

Old films like Taras Boulba? Or The Man who would be king? just as examples...

Even recent movies or series too
Recently I saw an Ottoman bullet box in the serie "Vikings"...

Best wishes,
Kubur
