A little Walther with a bonus

This is a #5 Walther vest pocket pistol that has capture papers and holster. They made one through ten of these vest pockets. These small pistols make up a large part of my collection.
Thanks for looking,
Joe

That is really and truly cool. It's so rare to see these bring backs with official papers.

My Dad was an Army surgeon in WW2. 44th evacuation Hospital. He toured the Walther Factory and brought home some goodies like 15 P38s and the Model 1 and Model 2- .22 cal. rifles which were semi-automatic/ bolt action. He had good taste.Nothing like a Walther.
