Fully matching - and actually scarcely seen! - pair of WH (Heeres) EM-type (ie. 'M36-/M40'-pattern- and/or 'pointed styled') 'cyphered' shoulderstraps as was intended for a: 'Soldat des Kavallerie o. Reiter-Regiments 2'

This is a very attractive - and fully matching! - pair of WH (Heeres), early- (ie. pre-war-) period, so-called: 'M36-/M40'-pattern- (pointed-styled) 'cyphered'- and/or per regulation non-piped enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstraps as was intended for - and worn by! - a: 'Soldat des Kavallerie o. Reiter-Regiments 2' (or: simple soldier who served within the army cavalry unit ie. regiment numbered: '2') and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit minimally used ie. worn-), condition. The shoulderstraps - which are approximately 13,2 cms. sized in length each - have the 'standard-type'- and/or field-grey-coloured, woolen-based 'upperdecks' and have (of course) no piping attached. The straps show the neat (machine-embroidered by means of so-called: 'Kurbelstickerei'-) so-called: '2'-cypher ie. numeral (which is executed in the golden-yellow- (ie. 'goldgelbener'-) coloured wool as to be expected as can be seen on the pictures). The straps - which comes mounted onto their functional tongues - show as stated above some minimal usage and/or wear (some minor staining and/or dust is visible and/or present). It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-pattern shoulderstraps can easily be regarded 'fairly scarce'. Simply an attractive and/or: early-war-period, neatly 'cyphered' and/or 'Heeres'-related EM-type shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat des Kavallerie o. Reiter-Regiments 2'!

This is an attractive - actually rarely encountered! - HJ- ie. BDM (ie. 'Hitlerjugend' or: 'Bund Deutscher Mädel') related, commemorative day-badge (ie. 'tinnie' ie. 'Veranstaltungsabzeichen') being a greyish-toned- and/or (I deem) light-weight zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based example as was issued to commemorate a specific (national!) youth-rally ie. gathering named the: 'Reichsberufs-Wettkampf der Deutschen Jugend' that was held in the year 1939 and that is entitled: 'Reichswettkampf - Köln a. Rh. - 1939' and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit surely issued ie. clearly worn-), condition. The still very detailed and/or pronounced badge is as stated very nicely preserved and was most certainly never cleaned nor polished (as can be seen on the pictures). The neatly maker- (ie. 'Hofstätter - Bonn'-) marked piece shows a detailed illustration of the Kölner town-scene (ie. depicting the famous 'Kölner Dom' and eagle-device) and is holding a so-called, enamelled: miniature 'HJ-Raute' which is totally undamaged) with above that the year-designation (1939) and stylished text as mentioned above. The badge comes naturally mounted onto its (functional) pin-/catch set-up. Simply an attractive - and with certainty rarely seen! - youth-related 'tinnie' ie. 'Veranstaltungsabzeichen' that is priced according to its rarity and/or desirability!

Superb, early- (ie. mid-) war-period example of an: 'SA-Sportabzeichen in Bronze' being a very detailed and maker- (ie. 'Berg u. Nolte'-) marked example that shows a unique, impressed bearers'-number that reads: '612787'

The truly very attractive - and I deem fairly early- (ie. eventually pre-) war-period - SA-sports-badge is as stated nicely maker-marked on its back with the makers'-designation: 'Berg u. Nolte - Lüdenscheid' (and unique serial-number that reads: '612787' and that also bears the usually encountered inscription: 'Eigentum d. SA Sportabzeichen Hauptstelle' (as is visible on the back of the sword as always). The badge - which comes naturally mounted onto its functional- and fully unaltered pin- (ie. catch-) set-up - is truly void of any wear nor age: it can easily graded: 'almost virtually mint' and was never cleaned nor polished: the original- and/or (fairly dark-coloured- and truly golden-bronze-toned) finish is fully present and/or neatly preserved (as can be seen on the pictures). Moreover, does this example retains all of its period-applied shiny finish (ie. 'Brennlack'). The badge is just a tiny bit stained caused by decades of storage only. Simply a 'virtually mint' example that is accordingly priced: one of the nicest such 'SA-Sportabzeichen' I had on offer for quite some time!

'Wiederholungsspange zum EK II. Klasse' (or: bar to the WWI IC 2nd class) being a non-maker-marked example as was produced by the maker (ie. 'Hersteller') named: 'Wilh. Deumer' based in the town of Lüdenscheid

This is an attractive and - I deem - only moderately worn - and nowadays actually scarcely encountered! - example of a so-called: 'Wiederholungsspange zum EK II. Klasse' (or bar to the WWI IC 2nd class) being a (presumably) non-maker-marked (ie. 'Buntmetall-versilbertes') example as was produced by the desirable maker (ie. 'Hersteller') named: 'Wilh. Deumer' based in the town of Lüdenscheid and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit most certainly issued and/or moderately worn- and/or once tunic-attached-), condition. The neat piece retains most of its 'high-polished sides (or 'hochpolierte Kanten') and is very detailed and/or pronounced as to be expected: it came together with its (somewhat confectioned) piece of WWI-period, EKII-ribbon ie. 'Bandabschnitt' (as can be seen on the pictures). The 'Spange' regrettably misses two of its four (bent but naturally still functional) prongs and is as stated above only minimally stained ie. dirty: it retains a very nice age-patina and was I deem never cleaned nor polished. These attractive - by the 'Wilhelm Deumer'-company produced 'Wiederholungsspangen zum EK II. Klasse' are nowadays quite scarcely encountered and are not that often appearing on todays' market. Of course did I price this piece according to its two missing prongs.

Stunning, WH (Heeres) 'Ärmelabzeichen für Angehörige des Sonderverbandes 287 o. 288' being a 'virtually mint- ie. unissued' example as was executed in so-called: 'BeVo'-weave pattern

This is a truly rarely encountered and/or equally desirable WH (Heeres) 'BeVo'-woven armbadge that is known as: 'Ärmelabzeichen für Angehörige des Sonderverbandes 287 o. 288' and that comes in an overall very nice (and IMO virtually mint-/unissued-), condition. This special unit (ie. aka 'Sonderverband 288') was raised on July 1st 1941 in the town of Potsdam (near Berlin) and was composed of units from all over Germany. This unit simply named: '288' or: 'z.b.V. 288' was also known as: 'Combat Group Menton', after its commander. It originally contained elite-units from all branches of the German army: anti-tank men, mountain-troops, engineers and eventually three of the new 'StuG.III' assault-guns. There was also a company of so-called: 'Brandenburgers' (being special troops trained for special operations behind the enemy lines). These units were intended to prepare the way for the DAK as it flowed across the Nile and into the Middle East and on to India. Their most important component was a group of interpreters with their own printing presses. These men knew all the languages that would be needed, from Arabic and Persian dialects to Hindi, Urdi and Sanskrit. There was also a specialized group who had been trained to seize and rebuild the oil-fields of the region. When it became obvious that Rommel's rush to the Nile was not going to be succesful, the 288th (minus its interpreters and technicians) was sent to Africa as special reinforcement-troops. During the 'Gazala Line' battles, the '288th' saw action supporting the Italian 'Ariete' against the French forces defending the town of Bir Hacheim at the southern tip of the British defenses. They also participated in the El Alamein battles, and the last of their 'StuG.IIIs' was left behind for the British to contemplate. By October 31, the 'Sonderverband 288' was reorganized and renamed into the: 'Panzer-Grenadier-Regiment “Afrika”. The armbadge on offer here is nicely woven in the so-called: 'BeVo'-weave technique and is a truly beautiful example of this fantastic technique. The badge comes in a very nice- ie. virtually 'mint- ie. unissued' condition and comes as 'straightly cut-of the role' (it is NOT trimmed nor folded as can be seen on the pictures). The badge on offer here is naturally a 100% period- and/or genuine example for which I give a life-time garuantee (as always). Simply a truly attractive and rarely encountered WH (Heeres) armbadge!

Attractive, WH (Luftwaffe) 'Flakkampfabzeichen' being a 'Buntmetall'-based and (unusually seen!) non-maker-marked example as was produced by the: 'C.E. Juncker'-company and that comes as moderately worn

This is an attractive - and I deem early ie. mid-war-period - 'Buntmetall'-based and (unusually seen!) non-maker-marked so-called: WH (Luftwaffe) 'Flakkampf-Abzeichen' (or: LW anti-aircraft war-badge) as was produced by the: 'C.E. Juncker'-company and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit clearly issued- and/or moderately worn- and/or used-), condition. The attractive badge - which as stated has been only moderately worn - comes naturally mounted onto its functional pin and original (ie. fully unaltered) catch (ie. catch-set-up) (as can be seen on the pictures). This example has a greyish-silver-coloured- and separately attached 'eagle-device' in place (as always by badges by this maker) and shows nice and/or pronounced detail overall. The badge has a superb age-patina and retains most of its original (somewhat 'blackened'-) and/or typical Buntmetall-based finish: it is just a bit dirty but has most certainly never been cleaned nor polished. As stated above, is the piece a neat (and unusually!) non-maker-marked specimen that was with certaintty produced by the desirable maker: 'C.E. Juncker' based in the town of Berlin. The war-badge originated from a private-household in Germany and was never before part of a collection. Simply a truly very attractive and untouched Luftwaffe 'Flakkampfabzeichen' by the desirable 'C.E. Juncker'-company and that that is with certainty accordingly priced!

Attractive, WH (Luftwaffe) 'Fallschirmschützen-Abzeichen in Stoff' (or: cloth-based paratroopers'-jump-badge) being a nicely machine-embroidered specimen that comes in a probably issued albeit never used- ie. 'virtually mint', condition

This a truly attractive - and actually not that easily encountered! - so-called: WH (Luftwaffe) 'Fallschirmschützen-Abzeichen in Stoff' (or: cloth-based paratroopers'-jump-badge) being a nicely machine-embroidered specimen that comes in presumably issued but simply never used- nor worn- ie. tunic-attached, condition. The piece is neatly machine-embroidered in multi-coloured- (and/or linnen-based) thread and simply cannot be upgraded. This particular example shows great pronounced detail in order to closely resemble its metal-based counterparts. This example was stored as such for years by the veteran to whom it was issued. These cloth-based versions were preferred by the soldiers, NCOs and/or officers 'stationed in the field' for obvious reasons. Simply an attractive and fully 'text-book' example of a WH (Luftwaffe) 'Fallschirmschützen-Abzeichen in Stoff' that is accordingly priced!

Superb - and with certainty very rarely encountered! - 'HJ' ('Hitlerjugend') ie. 'BDM' ('Bund Deutscher Mädel'-) district-triangle (ie. 'Gebietsdreieck') entitled: 'Ost Ostland' (being an only moderately used- ie. worn example)

This is a 'female'-specimen, indicating that it is neatly woven in silverish-white-coloured linnen on a black-coloured (and also linnen-based-) background. This example was with certainty issued and was - I deem - moderately used- ie. once tunic-attached but is void of its - presumably once-attached - 'RzM-etiket' (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece just shows some minimal staining caused by moderate wear and/or decades of storage (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that these 'exotic' BDM-district-triangles rank amongst the most difficult youth-triangles of the extensive 'Gebietsdreiecke'-series to encounter. This particular 'BDM'-piece can easily be graded: 'extremely rare'. I deem that I priced this example according to its comparative rarity and/or desirability!

This is an attractive - and most certainly issued- albeit hardly worn nor even used - example of an: 'Infanterie Sturmabzeichen in Silber' (or: silver-class infantry-assault-badge ie. IAB) being a clearly maker- (ie. small 'W'-) marked, so-called: 'flat-back'- and/or somewhat golden-silvered, zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based specimen as was produced by the: 'Karl Würster'-company and that comes in an overall very nice- (and - I deem - issued albeit hardly used nor worn-), condition. This example is a neatly maker-marked award that shows the various characteristics as only seen on IABs as produced by the: 'Würster'-company. The - very pronounded! - 'flat- ie. solid-back'-pattern war-badge seems to be totally uncleaned and has a still a very attractive and minimally tarnished age-patina: truly most of its period-applied (somewhat shiny) finish has been nicely (ie. fully) preserved (as can be seen on the pictures). The pin and/or catch (ie. set-up-) are of course fully functional and present. The piece - which originates from a private-household where it was recently found - was never cleaned and has been truly nicely preserved. Simply an honest 'Feinzink'-based, silver-class 'solid-back'-pattern IAB as was produced the desirable maker (ie. 'Hersteller'): 'Karl Würster' and that is accordingly priced!

Superb, 'Zellstoff'-based medal-pouch entitled: 'Infanterie-Sturmabzeichen' (or: infantry assault-badge ie. IAB) as executed in typical: 'Zellstoff'-based paper as was produced by the maker: 'Ordenfabrik Fritz Zimmermann - Stuttgart'

This is a truly unusual - and actually very scarcely encountered! - item: a darker-blue-coloured- and/or carton-based medal-pouch (sized: 13,5 x 10,5 cms.) entitled: 'Infanterie-Sturmabzeichen' (or: infantry assault-badge ie. IAB of either the silver- or bronze-class) as executed in typical: 'Zellstoff'-based paper, as was produced by the desirable maker: 'Fritz Zimmermann - Stuttgart' and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. clearly issued- and/or used- and minimally torn-), condition. The pouch is of course still functional and just shows some dust-marks and/or minimal staining (it shows a minor tear on its top): it originates from a small medal-pouch-collection I recently acquired for the web-site: it bears the black-coloured and printed makers'-designation that reads: 'Ordenfabrik Fritz Zimmermann - Stuttgart' on its back. I am convinced that this 'simply' pouch is actually x-times rarer to find than the actual IAB itself. Simply a neat piece of unmistaken scarcity and/or desirability!

This is an attractive - and just moderately used- and/or worn - example of a: 1870/71-period, so-called: 'Doppelspange' (being of the partly 'detachable-pattern') showing respectively a Prussian: 'Kriegsdenkmünze 1870/71 für Kämpfer' (holding 4 period-attached bars entitled: 'Weissenburg', 'Wörth', Sedan and 'Paris') and a: 'Braunschweiger Landwehr DA der 2.Kl' (ie. 'Schnalle') and that comes as issued, minimally worn and/or recently found. The detail on the 'Kriegsdenkmünze' is nicely preserved: it has - I deem - never been cleaned nor polished and has an attractive and/or minimally tarnished (golden-toned) age-patina (as can be seen on the pictures). It retains nice details but is void of a makers'-designation. The four (period-attached) bars or 'Spangen' come in an equally nicely preserved condition. The detail on the (woven) 'Schnalle' is also nicely preserved (as can be seen on the pictures). Both awards - which show their nicely preserved, period ribbons - come both 'mounted' onto a metal-based 'clasp' that is neatly backed with two pieces of ribbon (and that shows a functional pin- ie. catch) as was intended for wearing this example on a 'going-out'- ie. dress-tunic or 'Waffenrock'. Simply a neat 1870/71-period, 'Doppelspange' that is with certainty accordingly priced!

This is a truly attractive - fully matching and nowadays very hard to find! - pair of (I deem mid-war period), white-piped, Waffen-SS NCO-type shoulderstraps as was specifically intended for usage by an: 'SS-Unterscharführer der Infanterie' (ie. infantry junior-sergeant) and that comes in a very nice- (albeit moderately used and/or worn-), condition. The straps have the neat and very desirable (white-coloured) 'silk-like'-type piping and show the black-coloured 'upperdecks': they have the field-grey-woolen-coloured 'underlays' and have the 'standard-pattern', silverish-grey-toned NCO-braid attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The pair has the typical Waffen-SS-pattern- and/or: smaller-shaped tongues attached (as only observed on genuine, mid- and later-war Waffen-SS-pattern straps) and is approximately 11 cms. sized in length as more often seen. The pair - which is of the typical 'standard-issue'-production - was only slightly used: it does show some truly minimal wear and age (as can be seen on the pictures). As most certainly known are all Waffen-SS, NCO-type straps to be considered rare and very hard to encounter: those matching NCO-pairs as piped in the white ('Infanterie') branchcolour even more so! Simply a very attractive and desirable pair of Waffen-SS infantry NCO-straps that comes in a truly wonderful condition: with certainty one of the nicest pairs I had on offer for quite some time!

The naturally non-magnetic- and/or non-vaulted cross shows some blackened- ie. tarnished age-patina but was most certainly never cleaned nor polished: it has lost, however, most (ie. all) of its typical silverish-grey-coloured finish that has just 'faded away' over the years as more often (as can be seen on the pictures). The cross comes naturally mounted on its functional (flute-shaped) pin- and/or: period catch (ie. catch-set-up) which are both present and fully unaltered (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece - which shows a clearly present makers'-designation '3'-stamped onto its back (as always) - comes as found and stored for decades: it was truly never cleaned and is still a bit stained ie. dirty (as can be seen on the pictures). I deem that the KvK 1st class award is a bit underestimated by the collectors' community: they can almost be graded equally as the IC 1st class.

The exampe on offer is the bronze- (ie. third-) class with swords and shows a clear makers-designation: '100' stamped in its ring: it is thus an example that was produced by the: 'Wächtler u. Lange'-company based in the town of Mittwaida (as is more often the case). The medal truly retains most of its (fairly glossy) golden-bronze-toned finish and still retains great pronounced detail (it is just a tiny bit tarnished- ie. dirty as to be expected but was never cleaned nor polished as can be seen on the pictures). The typical (darker-green-coloured-) ribbon is still sewn together and comes with its period-attached (ie. bronze-coloured-) pin-/catch 'attachment-clip' still attached. Simply a very nice 'Ostvölker'-related medal that will be very hard to be upgraded!

WH-related so-called: 'Tapferkeitsauszeichnung für Angehörige der Ostvölker, 2. Klasse in Silber mit Schwerter', being a nicely maker- (ie. '100'-) marked- and/or: 'Feinzink'-based example that comes mounted on its period ribbon

This is an attractive example of a WH-related, so-called: 'Tapferkeitsauszeichnung für Angehörige der Ostvölker, 2. Klasse in Silber mit Schwerter' (or: 'Ostvölker' service-medal for shown bravery on the Eastern Front with swords), being a nicely maker- (ie. '100'-) marked- and/or: 'Feinzink'-based example that comes mounted on its period-attached ribbon ('Bandabschnitt') and that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem only minimally used ie. worn-) condition.. The exampe on offer is the silver- (ie. second-) class with swords and shows a clear makers-designation: '100' stamped in its ring: it is thus an example that was produced by the: 'Wächtler u. Lange'-company based in the town of Mittwaida (as is more often the case). The medal truly retains most of its (fairly glossy) silver-toned finish and still retains great pronounced detail (it is just a tiny bit tarnished- ie. dirty as to be expected but was never cleaned nor polished as can be seen on the pictures). The typical (darker-green-coloured- ie. white-striped-) ribbon is still sewn together and comes with its period-attached (ie. bronze-coloured-) pin-/catch 'attachment-clip' still attached. Simply a very nice 'Ostvölker'-related medal that will be very hard to be upgraded!

Silver-class woundbadge (or: 'Verwundeten Abzeichen in Silber') being a nicely maker- (ie. '107'-) marked example (as was produced by the 'Hersteller' ie. maker: 'Carl Wild')

This is a neat - albeit moderately used- and worn - example of a silver-class woundbadge (or: 'Verwundeten Abzeichen in Silber') which is nicely maker-marked on its back with the makers'-designation: '107' (signifying that it is a piece that was produced by the company: 'Carl Wild' as based in the town of Hamburg) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The badge - which is executed in (typical) silverish-grey-coloured- and/or zinc-based metal (ie. 'Feinzink') - shows some obvious- albeit moderate wear ie. age and has a correct - and/or fully functional! - 'semi sunken'- pin- and/or catch (-set-up) in place. The badge has, however, never been cleaned and shows evident tarnish and/or wear: it just retains, however, some of its greyish-silver finish (as can be seen on the pictures). Still an attractive and nicely maker-marked silver-class WB that is with certainty accordingly priced!

This is a truly superb - and actually rarely encountered! - so-called: 'Technische Nothilfe' (ie. 'TeNo') honorary-award (ie. 'Ehrenzeichen mit Jahreszahl 1920') being a maker- (ie. 'Wilh. Fühner'-) marked and serial-numbered (ie. '1780'-marked-) example that comes stored in its accompanying (albeit somewhat damaged- but complete) black-coloured etui as issued and/or stored for decades. The very attractive and neatly multi-coloured award (that is executed in golden-bronze-toned so-called: 'Buntmetall') has a fully preserved enamelled surface (that is totally void of any enamel-damage or alike as can be seen on the pictures). It comes mounted on its functonal (and totally unaltered!) pin- ie. pin-/catch set-up. The pin shows a clearly present makers'-mark that reads: 'Wilhelm Fühner - Pforzheim' (being I deem the only producer of these rare awards). The back of the badge shows an engraved unique serial- ie. bearers'-number (that reads: '1780'). The award came stored in its period (black-coloured- and semi-leather-based-) etui that comes in an equally very nicely preserved condition. This etui - sized: 7 x 5,4 x 2 cms. - has a (beige-coloured) interior-section that hardly shows any wear (but that clearly shows an imprint of the award it held for decades). The etui is still (partly) functional but shows some wear and damage on its outside (regrettably is the glued-on 'sticker' or: 'Vignette' that normally also shows the serial- ie. bearers'-number not anymore present but one can clearly see where it once was as can be seen on the pictures). Simply in all respects a very attractive and boxed TeNo-award-set that was recently found at a private-household in Germany where it was recently found as such. It should, moreover, be noted that I have seen these rarely seen: 'Ehrenzeichen mit Jahreszahl 1920'-sets sell for much more than my asking-price!

Attractive, black- and silver-coloured, so-called: officers'-type sword-knot (ie. 'Portepee' ie.: 'Troddel') as was used for the various WH- (ie. 'Polizei' ie. police-) swords and that comes in an overall very nice condition

This is a very attractive example of a black- and/or silver-coloured, so-called: officers'-type sword-knot (ie. 'Portepee' ie.: 'Troddel') as was used for the various WH- (ie. 'Polizei' ie. police-) swords and that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem 'virtually mint'- and presumably never mounted-), condition. These officers'-type sword-knots (ie. 'Portepee' or: 'Troddel') were specifically intended for usage on the various swords (ie. Säbel) as worn by 'Offiziere' (ie. officers'-usage). The piece shows some minimal storage-age only and comes still folded- and tied together as found (as can be seen on the photos) but is void of any damage and is of course still functional. The piece was recently uncovered at a German private-household and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply an attractive example of an (unsually black-coloured!) 'Säbel-Portepee' that is accordingly priced!

This is an attractive - and I deem only moderately used- and/or worn - example of a WWI- (ie. Third Reich) period, so-called: 'Ordenspange' or medal-bar (being of the non 'non-detachable-pattern') showing respectively an: 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (or: iron cross second class), a: 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwertern' (ie.: 'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz 1914-18 mit Schw.') and a: 'Deutsche Volkspflege'- (ie. civil-service-) medal and that comes as issued, minimally worn and/or recently found. The detail on the 'EKII. Klasse' is nicely preserved: it has - I deem - never been cleaned nor polished and has an attractive and/or minimally tarnished age-patina (as can be seen on the pictures). It retains nice details but is void of a makers'-designation: moreover, does it have a nicely preserved, black-finished (ie. somewhat 'satin-like'- ie. 'shiny-style') core and is void of any damage or paint-loss. The piece is just a tiny bit dusty and/or stained but was never cleaned nor polished (as can be seen on the pictures). The FKK 1914-18 is a neat example that shows a clear makers'-designation on its back (that reads: '32 R.V. - Pforzheim'.) The detail is nicely preserved: it has - I deem - never been cleaned nor polished and has an attractive and minimally tarnished age-patina (as can be seen on the pictures). The VP-medal is executed in silver-coloured (and I deem 'Buntmetall'-based!) metal - and is a very detailed and/or pronounced example: it has a truly nice, somewhat 'tarnished' age-patina and is also a tiny bit dirty ie. stained but was most certainly never cleaned nor polished (as can be seen on the pictures). All three awards - which show their nicely preserved, period ribbons - come 'mounted' onto a metal-based 'clasp' that is not backed but that shows a functional pin- ie. catch (set-up) as was intended for wearing this example on a 'going-out'- ie. dress-tunic or 'Waffenrock'. Simply a neat WWI- (ie. TR-) period, 'Ordenspange' that is with certainty accordingly priced!

The piece came as issued and/or stored for decades. These attractive (I deem) semi-official - N.S.K.K.- (ie.

Attractive, golden-bronze coloured- (and I deem 'Buntmetall'-based-) example of a: 'Deutsch-Italienische Feldzugsmedaille' (or: German-Italian campaign medal) that comes mounted onto its (regular-sized-) piece of original ribbon

The very attractive medal is stamped by the designer/cutter ('De Marohis') and is also neatly maker-marked ('Lorioli-Milano') as is always the case with these neat and desirable commemorative Italian/German-awards. The medal truly retains most of its truly golden-bronze-coloured finish and has - I deem - never been cleaned nor polished: it is simply a tiny bit dirty and retains truly pronounced detail as to be expected. The piece comes - as stated above - mounted oton its (regular-sized- and/or neatly folded ie. confectioned) piece of original ribbon (which is actually hard to find in itself). The ribbon shows somewhat faded colours (as is more often the case) and comes mounted on its (period-attached, black-coloured) safety-pin as used ie. worn. The medal originates from a German private-household and was never before in a collection. Simply a neat and untouched example that is accordingly priced!

The neat piece - which was I deem surely issued but that was never worn nor mounted - together with its (minimally shortened - ie. approximately 15 cms. long-sized) ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt') as issued and found. The cross - which is void of any makers'-designation - was with certainty never cleaned and has a nice and/or attractive age-patina: it has, however, lost most of its so-called: 'hochpolierte Kanten' (or: polished sides) and has a minimally darkened- (ie. somewhat 'blackened') finish (as can be seen on the pictures). The cross has a nicely preserved, black-finished (ie. somewhat 'satin-like'- ie.

The piece is just a tiny bit dusty and/or stained but was never cleaned nor polished. The cross which is - I deem - a typical piece that was produced by the maker: 'Fritz Zimmermann' as based in the town of Pforzheim (ie.

The award also retains all of its high-polished sides ie. 'hochpolierte Kanten' (as can be seen on the pictures). It simply shows almost no wear nor age but is minimally tarnished (ie. dirty), caused by years of storage only.

This is an interesting - and most certainly unusually encountered! - early-period, 'N.S.D.A.P.'- related book entitled: 'Ludwig Knickmann' (being a 3rd edition) as compiled by the author Fritz Sell and that was published in the year 1933 and that comes in an overall nice- and/or fully complete, condition. The hard-covered booklet holds 80 pages and provides the reader with some background on this 'N.S.D.A.P.-martyr' who was killed in the early thirties: it also shows the colourful 'Knickmann-Standarte' printed on its cover. The smaller-sized book is 21 x 13,5 cms. sized and comes as stated in an overall nice and complete but most certainly read- and/or used condition, overall (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply an interesting 'N.S.D.A.P.'-related book that is accordingly priced!

Attractive, WH (LW-/Heeres- ie. 'Deutsches Afrikakorps'-) related, metal-based (ie. silver-coloured- and/or I deem genuine silver- ie. golden-based) so-called: 'souvenir'-ring depicting an engraved palmtree and showing the text: 'DAK 1941'

Attractive, WH (LW-/Heeres- ie. 'Deutsches Afrikakorps'-) related, metal-based (ie. silver-coloured- and/or I deem genuine silver- ie. golden-based) so-called: 'souvenir'-ring depicting an engraved palmtree and showing the text: 'DAK 1941'

The neat (and with certainty male-type- and/or: truly larger-sized-) finger-ring is I deem executed in genuine silver (gold?) and retains great pronounced detail. As more often does it show a clear (but regrettably unreadable) makers'-designation or alike (as can be seen on the pictures). The ring is clearly worn ie. used (it is still a bit tarnished and was with certainty never cleaned nor polished). The detail on the engraved (ie. palm-tree and/or text) is, however, nicely preserved and void of any damage or alike (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece originates with certainty of a local African-production (something that explains the not so detailed- ie. crudely executed appearance). These 'souvenir'-rings could be privately purchased from local artisans and were very popular amongst the troops. Simply a neat and 100% genuine example that originates from a German private household where it was recently uncovered. I deem that I have priced this DAK-'souvenir'-ring accordingly!

Smaller-sized, later- (ie. mid-) war-period, black-coloured WH (Heeres, Luftwaffe, Waffen-SS etc.) 'standard-issue'-pattern belt (ie. 'Koppelriemen') being a 80 cms. sized example that shows a (clear) makers'-designation (ie. 'RbN.Nr.')

Smaller-sized, later- (ie. mid-) war-period, black-coloured WH (Heeres, Luftwaffe, Waffen-SS etc.) 'standard-issue'-pattern belt (ie. 'Koppelriemen') being a 80 cms. sized example that shows a (clear) makers'-designation (ie. 'RbN.Nr.')

This is an attractive - and just moderately used- ie. worn - example of an (I deem) later- ie. mid-war-period, black-coloured, WH (Heeres, Luftwaffe, Waffen-SS etc.) 'standard-issue'- and/or: genuine leather-based belt (ie. 'Koppelriemen') being a 80 cms. sized example that shows a clearly present, impressed makers'-designation (that reads: 'R.B.Nr. 0/0850/0189') and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. moderately used- nor worn-), condition. The belt is of the 'standard-issued' pattern having a leather-based 'tongue'-attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece was hardly used and its overall condition is still very nice and of course fully functional and/or souple. The metal- (ie. steel-) based catch retains most of its greenish- ie. field-grey-coloured finish. It should be noted that these 'standard-issue' belts are nowadays getting very hard to come by (especially those neatly maker-marked examples as executed in blackened-leather). Hard to find a more nicely preserved and/or attractive example: the belt just needs an equally nicely preserved 'Heeres' ie. 'Luftwaffe'- (or Waffen-SS) type belt-buckle to complete!

Genuine-leather-based- and/or black-coloured, 'standard-pattern' (and I deem later-war-period-) WH (Heeres, Waffen-SS, Luftwaffe etc.) so-called: K98 bayonet-frog (ie. 'Tragetasche o. Koppelschuh')

This is an attractive - and in this nicely preserved condition not that easily encountered! - typical black-coloured- and/or genuine leather-based, 'standard-issue-pattern' (and presumably later-war-period) WH (Heeres, Waffen-SS, Luftwaffe etc.) so-called: K98 bayonet-frog (or: 'Tragetasche o. Koppelschuh') that comes in an overall nice- (ie. I deem issued- and/or moderately used-), condition. The frog - which is made-out of somewhat roughly-grained leather as to be expected - shows complete and/or undamaged (white-coloured-) stitching and steel-based rivets but is totally void of a makers'-designation nor date. The frog shows some minimal staining ie. dust simply caused by decades of storage and/or moderate wear (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece is naturally fully souple and/or functional. Simply a desirable 'Deutsche Wehrmacht'-related equipment-item that is accordingly priced!

Neat - and rarely seen! - long-time out-of-print reference-book entitled: 'The Daggers and Edged Weapons of Hitlers Germany' by the author Lt.Col. James Atwood (being a first edition dated 1965)

This is a truly desirable - and actually rarely encountered and long-time out-of-print - hard-cover reference-book entitled: 'The Daggers and Edged Weapons of Hitlers Germany' by the author Lt.Col. James Atwood (being a first edition dated 1965) and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit minimally used- ie. read), condition. The book comes with its period dust-cover and comes in an overall very nice condition. This reference-book (which is of the first edition) was published as stated above in 1965 and was at that time the only reference-guide available covering the subject matter. The book is in a very nice and I deem only slightly used condition. The larger-sized (and hard-covered) book (sized 28 x 19,5 cms.) contains 240 pages and is full of very interesting, subject-related information - in English language - and does contain numerous illustrations, text and/or photos on the various daggers and edged weapons. Simply a must for the serious and/or specialised collector. Nowadays a truly rarely found and desirable publication which is with certainty accordingly priced!

This is an attractive - and with certainty much sought-after! - (modern) out-of-print, reference-book (in German language) entitled: 'Die Deutsche Wehrmacht - Uniformierung und Ausrüstung 1933-1945 - Band 1: Das Heer' by Adolf Schlicht and John R. Angolia that was first published in 1992 and that comes in an overall very nice- (and hardly used- ie. read-), condition. In my personal opinion is this neat book still the BEST reference-guide on the subject matter. This particular book was published in 1992 and was at that time (and actually still is!) the only - and most comprehensive! - reference-guide on this subject available to date: it was a compilation of the 3(!) English-language works by the same title. The book comes in a very nice and only minimally used- ie. read condition. This medium-format book (sized: 24,5 x 17,5 cms.) contains 600 (!) pages and is full of very interesting information - in German - and contains numerous illustrations on the various WH (Heeres) uniforms and insignia. I personally use my copy almost every day. Simply a great reference-work and a must for the serious collector. Nowadays a truly scarcely seen and desirable publication!

The neat - medium-sized- and/or light-weight-piece (having an approximate diameter of 6,0 cms.) has truly pronounced detail and was never cleaned nor polished: it has maintained a neat typical, golden-bronze-toned- and somewhat 'frosted' age-patina (but also shows some minimal tarnish as can be seen on the pictures). The back of the medal shows a (hard-to-decypher) engraved text (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece came as issued and/or stored for decades. These attractive (I deem) semi-official - N.S.K.K.-related presentation-pieces were presumably used as some sort of awards and were (presumably) handed-out during a specific N.S.K.K.-related 'castle'-tour (named: the 'Niedersächsische Burgenfahrt' as was held in the year 1936).

This is an attractive - and actually not that easily encountered! - example of a typical darker-green-coloured- and/or 'standard'-pattern, WH (Kriegsmarine) ie. 'Küstenartillerie'-related rank-chevron (ie: 'Armwinkel') denoting the rank of: 'Obermatrose' (ie.: 'Obergefreiter') as was intended for usage on the various field-grey-coloured navy-tunics and that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem probably issued albeit never used- nor tunic-attached-), condition. The example on offer here is executed on typical darker-green-coloured- (and/or 'felt'-type) wool and shows a single stripe (albeit depicting two stripes) of the 'standard-type', golden-coloured naval-type NCO-braid attached (as can be seen on the pictures).

The neat collar-tabs (ie. 'Kragenspiegelsatz für Uffz. u. Mannschaften der LW-Felddivisionen') are executed in bright-green-coloured- (smooth- ie.

Both patches never had any gull (gulls) attached and show a brownish-beige-coloured- and/or typical 'buckram'-based backing in place (as can be seen on the pictures). The tabs - which still are 'off-factory' attached to eachother - are, moreover, nicely piped with bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured piping (which is executed in the typical rayon-like pattern) something that (I deem) most certainly signified 'Artillerie'-related usage. Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that both tabs show an identical ink-stamp on their backs that reads: 'R.B.Nr. 0/0784/0021'. Simply a very attractive and desirable LW 'Felddivisionen'-collar-tab-pair that is actually scarcely encountered: I deem that I have priced this scarcely seen and attractive LW-collartab-pair accordingly!
