This is an attractive - and actually fairly unusually encountered! - so-called: RLB (ie. 'Reichsluftschutz-Bund'), typically steel-based EM- (ie. NCO-) type belt-buckle (of the third- and final pattern) being a clearly maker- (ie. 'RS&S'- or: 'Richard Sieper & Söhne'-) marked example that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. It should be mentioned that this type of buckle was also worn by the various members of the RLB (ie. 'Reichsluftschutz-Bund') so-called: 'Sicherheits- u. Hilfsdienst (o. SHD)'. The buckle was most certainly issued and worn but nevertheless still retains extraordinary detail as to be expected. The piece has a typical, silver-coloured- (ie. 'sprayed'-) steel-like- appearance (ie. colour) and does retain most of its period sprayed colour: it has most certainly been cleaned over the years but is, however, void of any real damage or alike. The piece is neatly maker- (ie. 'RS&S'- or: 'Richard Sieper & Söhne'-) marked on its inside: it shows the impressed 'RS&S'-logo (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply an attractive, RLB (ie. 'Reichsluftschutz-Bund') steel-based, EM- (ie. NCO-) type belt-buckle (of the third- and final pattern) that is accordingly priced!
