How do you mean "blocked"? Your profile says your'e in Austin, which I'm assuming is Austin, TX...and the picture's visible here in California.

Actually, for $1.50, I might make a bid on that...I'm a big WWII buff

I am having difficulty reading the words below the star, though...might be "Diesel"?

Warden,
Sometimes government agencies and some private companies use filtering software to block their employees from surfing inappropriate content. That's probably what's going on here.

this is the ebay notice that comes up when the link is clicked

Dear User:



Unfortunately, access to this particular category or item has been blocked due to legal restrictions in your home country. Based on our discussions with concerned government agencies and eBay community members, we have taken these steps to reduce the chance of inappropriate items being displayed. Regrettably, in some cases this policy may prevent users from accessing items that do not violate the law. At this time, we are working on less restrictive alternatives. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience this may cause you, and we hope you may find other items of interest on eBay.

So what is the big deal about this auction, is the photo for auction?

Why the censorship, nazi memorabilia and who is blocking this, the government, comcast....?

Interesting, thought things like this only happened in Saudi Arabia and communist countries.
