Superb, (pre)WWI-period- and neatly enamelled, commemorative 'Königreich Sachsen'-medal (ie. so-called: 'Albrechts-Orden, Ritterkreuz der 2. Klasse mit Schwerten') that comes mounted onto its period-ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt')

This is a truly very attractive - and actually quite scarcely found! - example of a (pre)WWI-period- and neatly multi-coloured enamelled, commemorative medal (ie. so-called: 'Albrechts-Orden, Ritterkreuz der 2. Klasse mit Schwerten des Königreich Sachsens' or: Albert-Orden, Knights Cross second class with swords of the Kingdom of Saxony) being a very nicely preserved - and fully undamaged! - example that comes mounted onto its period-folded ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt'). The medal comes in a wonderful and totally untouched ie. pristine condition: it was never cleaned nor polished and retains a fully preserved silver-toned age-patina (something that is also valid for the golden-toned swords!). The piece is, moreover, nicely maker-marked (on both sides ie. 'arms') with the makers'-designation: 'Schaffenberg - Dresden' and is also stamped with a capital 'S'-character on lower 'arm' (as can be seen on the pictures). I deem that I have priced this very attractive example according to its fully untouched condition and unmistaken scarcity!

Attractive example of a DRK (ie. 'Deutsches Rotes Kreuz' or German Red Cross) nurses'-badge as was intended for a: 'Helferin' being a maker- (ie. 'F&R'-) marked example that comes in a fully untouched condition

Attractive example of a DRK (ie. 'Deutsches Rotes Kreuz' or German Red Cross) nurses'-badge as was intended for a: 'Helferin' being a maker- (ie. 'F&R'-) marked example that comes in a fully untouched condition

The attractive badge is - I deem - made-out of silver-coloured zinc-based metal (ie. 'Buntmetall') and has an immaculate enamelled surface (truly no damages whatsoever can be noticed as can be seen on the pictures). The badge is an unusually(!) maker- (ie. 'F&R - St. 3'-) marked example that has - I deem - only minimally worn: it has never been cleaned nor polished (and is still a tiny bit stained and/or dirty) and comes of course mounted onto its functional- and/or unaltered pin- ie. pin/catch (-set-up). These badges were also worn by the Germanic volunteers. Next to the mentioned makers'-designation does the piece show a clear 'Ges.Gesch.'-patent-pending-designation (as can be seen on the pictures). A similar example is also figured in the Heering-Hüsken lapel-pin-catalogue wherein it is given the unique reference-number: 5613XA. Simply an attractive DRK (ie. 'Deutsches Rotes Kreuz' or German Red Cross) so-called: 'Helferin'-badge that is accordingly priced!

WH (Kriegsmarine) neatly machine-embroidered, white-coloured so-called: career- ie. specialist-armbadge (ie. 'Tätigkeits-Abzeichen') as was intended for usage by a: 'Küstenartillerie'-staff-member

This is neat WH (Kriegsmarine) machine-embroidered, so-called: career- ie. specialist-armbadge (ie. 'Tätigkeits-Abzeichen') as was executed on white-coloured linnen as was specifically intended for usage by a: 'Küstenartillerie'-staff-member and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. I deem probably issued- albeit never used- nor tunic-attached-), condition. The badge - which was to be mounted on the upper-arm-regions of the various white-coloured, naval 'Küstenartillerie'-tunics - depicts a detailed so-called: 'winged grenade'-device (as can be seen on the pictures). The badge is executed in bright-red-coloured 'linnen' on a beige-white-coloured and/or typical, linnen-based background. The piece just shows some minimal age ie. staining caused by decades of storage only. Simply a neat example that is with certainty accordingly priced!

Early- (ie. mid-war-) period, WH (Heeres) cap-eagle & cocarde-set (ie. 'Schiffchen-Adler u. Kokarde für Mannschaften u. Uffz.') being a 'virtually mint- ie. unissued' set as executed in bluish-grey-coloured linnen on a field-grey-coloured background

This is neat example of an early- (ie. mid-war-) period, WH (Heeres) cap-eagle- and cocarde-set (ie. 'Schiffchen-Adler u. Kokarde für Mannschaften u. Unteroffiziere des Heeres') being a 'virtually mint- ie. unissued' set as was executed in bluish-grey-coloured linnen on a field-grey-coloured background. Both pieces have naturally never been trimmed- nor pre-folded and just show some slight staining and fraying, simply caused by decades of storage only. The set comes as 'straightly cut-of the role' and can naturally easily serve to restore or complete any Heeres side-cap ie. 'Schiffchen'. Simply a nice occasion to acquire a neat replacement side-cap-eagle/cocarde-set for a competitive price!

Moderately used WH (Heeres) officers'-type, hand-embroidered breast-eagle (ie. 'Brustadler für Offiziere') as was executed in bright-silverish-coloured braid as was intended for usage on the various officers'-pattern tunics

This is an attractive - and with certainty used ie. once tunic-attached! - example of a WH (Heeres) officers'-type, hand-embroidered- (and quite detailed!) army-type breast-eagle (ie. 'Brustadler für Offiziere') being executed in bright-silverish-coloured braid on a darker-green-coloured- and/or 'smooth'-woolen-based background and that comes in an overall very nice- and/or carefully tunic-removed, condition. This example - having a length ie. 'wingspan' of approximately 10,5 cms. - is nicely hand-embroidered using (minimally corroded) silverish-coloured 'braid' on a darker-green-coloured (and/or woolen-based-) background and has some 'highlighted areas' as executed in light-green-coloured thread (as can be seen on the pictures). The eagle - which is void of a makers'-designation as more often and that does show clear usage and wear as can be noticed on the pictures - was clearly once-tunic-attached: it shows a greenish-coloured- and/or paper-based 'backing' attached (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a neat example of a WH (Heeres) officers'-type breast-eagle that is accordingly priced!

It can, however, easily be mounted onto a tunic or shirt if wished so. The piece comes with its period-applied 'RzM'-etiket in place and comes 'as straightly cut-off the role' (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a nice occasion to acquire a neat - and fairly unusally encountered! - HJ/BDM cloth-based speciality-patch (ie. 'HJ/BDM-Tätigkeits-Abzeichen') that will be impossibly to be upgraded!

This is an attractive - and 22 mm. sized! - miniature lapel-pin (ie. 'Halbminiatur') depicting a: 'Verwundeten-Abzeichen in Schwarz' (or: black-class wound-badge) being a neatly maker- (ie. 'L/21'-) marked example as executed in black-coloured- (and I deem 'Buntmetall'-based) metal and that comes mounted onto its original, long-sized pin and that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem only minimally used- ie. worn-), condition. The piece is a truly detailed example that retains a very nice and just minimally tarnished age-patina: most of its original black-toned finish is present and/or nicely preserved: the piece has just a tiny bit tarnished over the years but is totally void of any damage. Although its truly small size it shows great pronounced detail and is in fact rarer to encounter than its regular sized counterparts (the photos do not do justice to this piece: in hands it is much nicer and/or detailed). Simply an attractive - and scarcely found! -miniature 'Verwundeten-Abzeichen in Schwarz'-lapel-pin as was produced by the desirable maker- (ie. 'Hersteller') named: 'Förster & Barth' based in the town of Pforzheim (ie. 'Hersteller' 10) and that is with certainty accordingly priced!

Attractive, WH (Heeres o. Waffen-SS) 'Krim'-campaign-shield that comes mounted onto its original, field-grey-coloured 'backing' and that comes in an issued-, moderately worn and/or carefully tunic-removed-, condition

This is attractive example of a (presumably) non-maker-marked, (Heeres o. Waffen-SS) 'Krim'-campaign-shield that comes mounted onto its original, field-grey-coloured- and/or typical woolen-based 'backing' (that is somewhat period-trimmed) and that comes in a clearly issued-, moderately worn- and/or carefully tunic-removed-, condition. The shield comes naturally complete with its metal-based 'back-plate' and has all its four prongs in place: moreover, does it still retain most its black-coloured- and/or paper- ie. linnen-based backing in place (that shows some wear and age as can be seen on the pictures). The shield - which is minimally converse-shaped as more often seen - truly retains most of its original, bright-golden-coloured- and somewhat 'shiny' finish ie. golden-bronze-like appearance in place and was never cleaned nor polished: it does show some minimal (rust)staining caused by minimal wear and/or decades of storage only. Simply an attractive - and desirable! - 'Heeres ie. Waffen-SS'-pattern example that was surely issued and worn. I deem that this truly worn example is priced accordingly!

Attractive example of a Spanish-issued, campaign-medal of the Spanish Blue Division in Russia called: 'Medalla Conmemorativa Division Azul - Medalla de Tropa 1941' that comes mounted on its (typically Spanish) mounted ribbon as issued and/or worn

The neat and/or multi-coloured Spanish-produced campaign-medal retains all of its somewhat darkened, silver-toned finish and retains a very detailed and/or pronounced appearance: it is just a bit dirty and/or tarnished simply caused by decades of storage and/or mimimal wear. The front of the medal shows an (enamelled) iron-cross with swastika as to be expected. The back shows some Russian scenery and the text and/or date: 'Rusia 1941'. The medal - which was I deem clearly issued ie. worn - comes mounted onto its original piece of confectioned and/or folded ribbon (which measures in total 10 cms. and that comes mounted on its golden-toned coloured and/or typical Spanish-issued so-called: mounting 'Spange' ie. bar (as can be seen on the pictures). This is the (one-pieced) version made-out of silvered- and copper- (ie. brass-) based metal as was specifically intended for usage by enlisted-men and/or NCOs (the officers-version was more luxuriously styled and came as a three-pieced version). These medals were produced (since 1943) by the Spanish-based company named: 'Díez y Compañía SA' based in the town of Madrid. Simply a nice opportunity to aquire an attracttive example of the Spanish-issued commemorative- (ie. campaign-)medal as was intended for usage by the troops of the 'Blue-Division'!

Superb - and fairly scarcely encountered! - 'Deutsche Wehrmacht'- (ie. WWII-period-) pocket-watch ('Dienstuhr') of the make: 'Arsa', having a black-coloured dial-plate and/or engraved back-plate that reads: 'D 13054 H'

This is a truly attractive - and/or fairly scarcely encountered! - example of a 'standard-issue'-pattern, 'Deutsche Wehrmacht'- (ie. WWII-period-) pocket-watch (or: 'Dienstuhr') of the make: 'Arsa' having a black-coloured dial-plate and/or engraved back-plate that reads: 'D 13054 H' and that comes in an overall very nice- albeit non-running, condition. These pocket-watches - having a standard 15- or 17-jewel movement - were distributed at a very small scale to the various soldiers (ie. NCOs and/or officers-) of the 'Deutsche Wehrmacht' and were properly entered in both: 'Wehrpass' and/or 'Soldbuch'. They had to be engraved with a 'DH' numbering (which abbreviation stands for: 'Deutsches Heer'). As stated above, has the piece on offer here a fully undamaged black-coloured dial having a subsidiary 'seconds'-dial at the 6 o'clock position. The piece - which comes with its period chain as used - has a very attractive (and virtually undamaged) casing (which is executed in nickle-silver-based metal): the watch just shows some minimal wear and/or age. As stated above does the piece not run properly and should be serviced. Nevertheless, a very nice and truly scarcely seen WH-equipment-piece: I deem that I have priced this attractive equiment-piece accordingly!

Superb, 'BeVo'-type armshield entitled: 'España' (being a 'virtually mint- ie. unissued' example as was intended for a volunteer who served within the 'Deutsche Wehrmacht' ie. within the famous 'Blue Division' ie. 'Blauer Division')

This particular armshield - showing a bright-red- and/or: golden-yellow-coloured shield with above the (Spanish language) text: 'España' (ie. Spain) - is neatly woven in the so-called: 'BeVo'-weave technique and comes as being straightly 'cut-off from the roll': it was simply never used nor tunic-attached and can easily be graded 'virtually mint- ie. unissued'. These - original - 'official' and German-produced arm-shields (ie. 'Ärmelschilder') as executed in 'BeVo'-type weave (ie. German manufacture by the company of 'BeVo') can be easily considered 'rare' and are hardly ever offered for sale. I deem that I have priced this (truly 'virtually mint-/unissued'- and rarely seen!) example accordingly!

Superb - and fully matching! - pair of Waffen-SS, NCO-type shoulderstraps as piped in the bright-red-coloured branchcolour as was intended for usage by an NCO and/or 'Führer-Anwärter' who served within the: 'Waffen-SS (Sturm)Artillerie-Truppen'

Superb - and fully matching! - pair of Waffen-SS, NCO-type shoulderstraps as piped in the bright-red-coloured branchcolour as was intended for usage by an NCO and/or 'Führer-Anwärter' who served within the: 'Waffen-SS (Sturm)Artillerie-Truppen'

Both shoulderstraps have the typical Waffen-SS-pattern- and/or: smaller-shaped tongues as only observed on genuine SS-pattern straps and have the neat bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour and/or 'silk-like'-type branchcolour ie. piping attached: the set is fully 'text-book' in all facets and is truly hard to be upgraded: it is just minimally used. The shoulderstraps - which are both 11 cms. sized in length as more often encountered - show the (typical) 'Waffen-SS'-styled-, field-grey-coloured- and/or: woolen-based 'underlays' (see pictures). The pair shows some minimal age and/or staining, simply caused by minimal wear and/or age. The straps have the neat 'standard'-type- and/or bluish-grey-coloured- (ie. sub-dued-) type NCO-braid attached, denoting the NCOs'-rank of: 'SS-Scharführer' (ie. sergeant). Moreover, does the pair show two dual-stripes (ie. 'Laschen') of (almost identically executed- and/or also somewhat bluish-coloured-) NCO-braid, period-attached, denoting that the bearer was also an officers'-candidate (ie: 'Offiziers- o. SS-Führer-Anwärter'). These 'Laschen' are firmly attached to the straps - as can be seen on the pictures). In any case is this a fully garuanteed, original Waffen-SS shoulderstrap-set, in only moderately used ie. worn condition and that is - I deem - consequently priced. The pair shows almost no wear nor damage and is as stated only slightly used ie. worn. It should be noted that these original, period Waffen-SS shoulderstrap-pairs can easily be graded 'scarce': even more so, when they are piped in the not that easily encountered, bright-red-coloured- (ie. 'Waffen-SS (Sturm)Artillerie-Truppen'-related-) branchcolour! Great to complete a so-called: 'Waffen-SS Sturmgeschütze' 'wrap-around'-tunic!

This is a truly attractive 4-pieced-, WWI- (ie. TR- and/or: Polizei-related-) period-, medal-bar (ie. 'Spange'), respectively depicting a: WWI-period: 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (or: iron cross second-class), a: 'Baden Verdienstmedaille' (or: Baden Merit Medal), a: 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18' (ie.: 'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz 1914-18 mit Schwerter') and a golden-class- and/or WWII-period: 'Polizei-Dienstauszeichnung 1. Stufe' (or: police loyal-service medal first class as was awarded for 25 years of loyal-service) that comes with two accompanying 'Band-/Feldspangen' as issued and/or carefully kept for decades, all four (ie. six!) pieces coming in an overall very nice (albeit minimally used- ie. worn-), condition. The 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' is a nicely preserved example that retains a (fully present- ie. undamaged-) black-coloured core. The silver-based frame is just a bit tarnished and does show a bluish-like age-patina (as is more often encountered). The 'Baden Verdienstmedaille' is a neat zinc- (ie. Feinzink-) based example that has lost some of its period-finish (as more often). The 'Frontkämpferkreuz' (ie.: 'Kriegsteilnehmerkreuz mit Schwerter') is a nicely preserved- (and/or: '39 - RV - Pforzheim'-marked-) example that is executed in (reddish-) bronze-coloured-, zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based metal. It retains most of its somewhat darkened-, bronze-toned finish (see pictures). The 'Polizei-Dienstauszeichnung 1. Stufe' (or: police loyal-service medal first class as was awarded for 25 years of loyal-service) is a very nicely preserved example that truly retains gorgeous details: it still shows most of its 'off-factory' polished-sides (ie. 'hochpolierte Kanten'). The medal is a tiny bit tarnished but retains a great age-patina overall (it has most certainly never been cleaned nor polished). It comes naturally mounted on its darker-blue (ie. 'kornblumenblauer'-) coloured ribbon that shows a neatly interwoven- (and/or: golden-yellow-coloured-) police-eagle-device as to be expected. All four awards have a nicely preserved age-patina and are just a tiny bit dirty: they were - I deem - never cleaned nor polished ( as can be seen on the pictures). All four medals come mounted onto a metal-based 'bar' (that was specifically produced to hold these four medals): all four can be detached from the bar (as can be seen on the pictures). The 'Spange' is nicely backed with a piece of darker-green-coloured wool and shows a (regular-type-) pin-/catch- set-up (which if of course fully functional). It came (as stated above) with two accompanying 'Feld- o. Bandspangen' (of which one is of the 'regular'-model whereas the other is intended for a 'button-hole'). Both pieces show a neat (golden-toned) police-eagle-device and are of course fully functional. The entire 'Spange'-set originates from a private household and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply a very attractive example of a four- (ie. six-) pieced WWI- ie. 'Polizei'-related 'Ordenspange'-set that will be hard to be upgraded!

This is an attractive - and actually rarely seen! - four-pieced medal-bar (ie. 'Ordenspange') respectively depicting a WWI-period: 'Eisernes Kreuz II.

Stufe' (or police loyal-service medal first class as was awarded for 25 years of loyal service within the various police-services) all four pieces coming in an overall very nice- (albeit minimally used- ie. worn-), condition. All four awards are truly neatly silver- ie. golden-bronze- (ie. bright-golden-) coloured and 'fairly frosted' examples that are al lfour just minimally tarnished by age and/or moderate usage and wear (as can be seen on the pictures) but are void of any damage or alike. The - fairly rarely seen! - Austrian-Hungarian, Red Cross Silver Merit medal 1864-1914 shows the Latin text: 'Patriae ac Hvmaniti' on its front and is a beautifully preserved example that is totally void of any enamel damage: the inner-shield and green-coloured oak-leaves show a fully preserved enamel surface wheres the (silver-based) medal itself is just a bit tarnished by age (as can be seen on the pictures). All four pieces come naturally mounted on their period ribbons and have a nicely preserved age-patina and are just a tiny bit dirty: they were never cleaned nor polished (see pictures). The entire 'Spange' is nicely 'backed' with a piece of greyish-blue-coloured wool and shows a (regular-type- and functional) pin- ie. catch-set-up (as can be seen on the pictures). The 'Ordenspange' shows a neatly interwoven (and as more often seperately attached) 'Polizei'-eagle-device on its blue-coloured ribbon (done in golden-yellow-coloured linnen as to be expected). The 'Frontkämpferkreuz 1914-18' is a maker- (ie. 'R.V.S.-Pforzheim'-) marked example. Simply an attractive example of a four-pieced, WWI- ie. TR-'Polizei'-related 'Ordenspange' that comes in an uncommonly found combination and that will be truly hard to be upgraded!

This is a truly attractive - and I deem only minimally used- and/or worn - example of a four-pieced WH (Heeres o. Kriegsmarine) medal-bar (ie. 'Ordenspange') showing respectively a: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwertern' (or: war-merits'-cross second class with swords), two so-called: 'WH-Dienstauszeichnungen für 4 u. 12 Jahre Treue Dienste' (or: loyal-service medal for four ie. twelve years of loyal service) both having their period-attached eagle-devices attached and a: 'Deutsche Olympia-Erinnerungsmedaille 1936' (or: Berlin Olympic Games commemorative medal) and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. only moderately used- ie. worn-, condition. All four awards are just somewhat tarnished by age but are truly nicely preserved (as can be seen on the pictures): they are void of any damage or alike. The 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwertern' (or: war-merits'-cross second class with swords) is a typical 'Buntmetall'-based example. Its bright golden-toned, bronze-like finish and pronounced detail are still very nice and bright: the piece truly retains almost all of its original (somewhat 'shiny') finish and was never polished nor cleaned. Both loyal-service medals are truly very nicely preserved examples that seem to have never been cleaned nor polished: both come in an equally tarnished- ie. dusty condition and also come mounted on their period-attached ribbons. Both 'DA' have a neat frosted appearance and show a mininally darkened- ie. truly 'bright and frosted' age-patina (as can seen on the pictures): something that is also valid for both eagle-devices. The 'Deutsche Olympia-Erinnerungsmedaille 1936' (or: Berlin Olympic Games commemorative medal) is an attractive (and detailed- and pronounced!) piece that retains most of its its period-applied, silver-coloured finish: it also retains some of its: 'hochpolierte Kanten' (or polished sides) but is a tiny bit stained (it has never been cleaned nor polished). It comes mounted on its reddish-orange-coloured ribbon. The 'Spange' just shows some minimal dirt and/or dust acquired over the years: the ribbons show some equal minor usage and/or staining. The entire 'Spange' is nicely 'backed' with a piece of black-coloured wool and comes mounted on its (regular-type-) pin-/catch- set-up (which is of course fully functional). The 'Spange' originates from a private household and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply a very attractive example of a four-pieced 'Ordenspange' that will hard to be upgraded!

This is a truly superb - and actually very rarely encountered! - copper-toned- and I deem 'Buntmetall'-based ID-disc (ie.

The piece on offer here is naturally a 100% genuine, period item that was recently found at a private-household in Germany. The disc has a very nice- and minimally tarnished (ie. somewhat stained) age-patina: it was never cleaned nor polished and is still a tiny bit dirty ie. stained: of course, does the piece retain great, pronounced detail as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). I deem that I have priced this rare and desirable item accordingly: I have seen these original police (ie. 'Polizei') 'Dienstmarken' sell for much more than my asking-price!

The badge - which shows a clear makers'-designation on its back that reads: 'K.

It retains a fully undamaged, golden-bronze-toned finish and has an undamaged, multi-coloured- and/or nicely enamelled surface (as can be seen on the pictures). These attractive day-badges were awarded (in similar form and/or model) from 1940 onwards and are actually not that commonly encountered. This attractive - and totally undamaged! - example has an approximate diameter of 3,5 cms. and originates from a German private-household: it was never before in collectors'-hands.

The iron cross - which is an example by a - by me - unidentified maker - was with certainty never cleaned and has a very nice and/or attractive age-patina: it retains, moreover, a fair bit of its so-called: 'hochpolierte Kanten' (or: polished sides) and has a minimally tarnished ie. stained appearance (as can be seen on the pictures). The cross has very nice and/or pronounced detail and has a nicely preserved, black-finished (ie. somewhat 'matted'- ie. satin-like) core: it is totally void of any paint-damage or alike (as can be seen on the pictures). The Ost-medal - which is a I deem a very nicely preserved 'Buntmetall'-based specimen - has a somewhat 'shiny' (ie. greyish-blue-) coloured age-patina and was most certainly never cleaned nor polished and therefore are details and/or finish still very nice and/or crisp. The piece shows some minimal age and/or staining but was never cleaned nor polished. The Austrian 'Anschluss'-medal is a very attractive example having great pronounced detail: truly most (ie. all!) of its (bright-) silver-toned finish is very nicely preserved whereas the medal has an attractive tarnish ie. age-patina without showing any defaults. The Czech 'Anschluss'-medal is an equally attractive example having great pronounced detail: truly most ie. all of its (bright-) golden-toned finish (and so-called: 'Brenn-lacquered' surface!) is still perfectly preserved whereas the medal has an attractive tarnish ie. age-patina without showing any defaults. The 'Spange' just shows some minimal staining and/or dust as was acquired over the years: the ribbons show some equal minor usage and/or staining. The 'Spange' has truly very nice detail and comes mounted on a 'backplate' that has been backed with a piece of field-grey-coloured wool: it is of the desirable 'detachable pattern' and shows a (regular-type-) pin-/catch- set-up (which if of course fully functional as can be seen on the pictures).

This is a truly very attractive - and with certainty rarely encountered! - example of a so-called: HJ (ie. 'Hitlerjugend') 'Goldenes Ehrenzeichen' being a clearly serial- (ie. '112624-) numbered, so-called: 'A-Stück' that is clearly maker-marked on its back with the makers'-designation: 'RzM - M1/52' and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit - I deem - moderately worn- and/or issued-), condition. The badge (or: 'HJ-Ehrenraute') - which has an immaculate enamel-surface (without showing any damage or alike) retains very nice detail and comes complete onto its (fully functional) pin (and specific) pin set-up (as can be seen on the pictures). The badge was never cleaned nor polished and just shows some minimal scratches and/or tiny wear-marks as to be expected: moreover, does it have an attractive and somewhat darkened age-patina. A similar lapel-pin is also figured in the: 'Heering-Hüsken' lapel-pin-catalogue wherein it is given the unique-number '9301C'. Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that this example came with a tiny (golden-toned) chain and/or safety-pin attached: most certainly intended for securing the piece when used and/or worn. I deem that this attractive honorary HJ youth-badge ie. 'HJ-Ehrenraute' is priced according to its unmistaken rarity and/or desirability!

Superb, 5-pieced WH (Heeres) ie. DAK-related insignia-grouping comprising of resp. an: 'Afrika'-cuff-title, ID-disc, rank-chevron, 'K.-Bew.Abz. in B.' and an: 'Ärmelabzeichen für Angehörige des Sonderverbandes 287 o. 288'

This is a truly attractive - and obviously used- and/or worn- ie. carefully tunic-removed! - 5-pieced, WH (Heeres) ie. DAK- (or: 'Deutsches Afrikakorps'-) related insignia-grouping comprising of respectively an: 'Afrika'-cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen'), an aluminium-based ID-disc (ie. 'Erkennungsmarke') bearing the clearly stamped unit-designation that simply reads: 'Ers.Kp.M.G.Btl.8', a field-grey-coloured rank-chevron (ie. 'Armwinkel') as was intended for usage by an: 'Obergefreiter', a golden-bronze-toned: 'Kraftfahrbewährungs-Abzeichen in Bronze' and a rarely seen: 'Ärmelabzeichen für Angehörige des Sonderverbandes 287 o. 288' (being an example as was executed in the BeVo-weave-pattern) all five pieces coming in an overall nice- (albeit clearly used- and/or worn-), condition. The grouping was always together and was clearly used as such: the grouping originates from a private-household in Germany where it was recently found as such: it was never before in collectors'-hands. The attractive cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen') comes in a truly worn- and/or once-tunic-attached- and still 'sewn-together' condition: it measures (folded) approximately 36 cms. and was clearly once worn and/or carefully tunic-removed (as can be noticed on the pictures). Both ends are still period 'sewn-together' and show some normal fraying as is more often encountered and the piece still shows some (clearly present!) stitching-remains (as can be seen on the pictures). The armband shows some obvious age, wear and staining and was stored as such for decades. The cuff-title is executed in the (typical) neat (ie. 'smooth-type'-) beige-brownish-coloured, so-called: 'Kamelhaar' (camel hair) as is more often encountered. It should be stated that these 'Afrika'-cuff-titles are not to be regarded as commemorative cuff-titles (such as the 'Afrikakorps' cuff-title) but were regarded as official awards that needed official recognition (and entries in both 'Soldbuch' and/or: 'Wehrpass'). The aluminium-based ID-disc (ie. 'Erkennungsmarke') is bearing the clearly stamped unit-designation that simply reads: 'Ers.Kp.M.G.Btl.8' (and was as such intended for a soldier who served within the replacement- (ie. 'Ersatz'-) company of this 'Infanterie'-related, machine-gunners 'Bataillon', numbered: '8'). It should be noted that this particular unit was truly one of the first units that set foot on African soil (ie. Libyen) in 1941. The disc also shows the soldiers'-bloodgroup-type (ie. 'Type A'). The field-grey-coloured rank-chevron (ie. 'Armwinkel') shows two stripes of the bluish-grey-coloured NCO-braid and was as such intended for usage by an: 'Obergefreiter': it was clearly used and was carefully tunic-removed. The golden-bronze-toned: 'Kraftfahrbewährungs-Abzeichen in Bronze' is also nicely preserved and comes mounted onto its original piece of field-grey-coloured wool. It retains its period, beige-coloured 'backing-paper' and most of its somewhat shiny ie. 'Brennlack'-like surface (as can be seen on the pictures). The last piece in the grouping is a - rarely encountered and/or equally desirable! - WH (Heeres) 'BeVo'-woven armbadge that is also known as: 'Ärmelabzeichen für Angehörige des Sonderverbandes 287 o. 288' and that comes in an overall very nice- (and clearly worn- ie. carefully tunic-removed-), 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. The armbadge is nicely woven in the so-called: 'BeVo'-weave-technique and is a truly attractive example of this fantastic technique. The badge comes as stated above in a truly used and once tunic-attached condition: some of the stitching-holes are still present and visible and it shows some age, wear and/or staining (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). I deem that I have priced this attractive - and with certainty desirable! - 5-pieced WH (Heeres) ie. DAK- (or: 'Deutsches Afrikakorps'-) related insignia-grouping accordingly!

Maker- (ie. '65'-) marked example of a black-class wound-badge (or: 'Verwundeten-Abzeichen in Schwarz') being an example that was produced by the maker (ie. 'Hersteller') named: 'Klein & Quenzer'

The black-class WB does show only minimal wear and/or aging but truly retains most of its original, black-coloured- and/or somewhat 'matted'- ie. satin-like finish: it only shows minimal wear and was simply nicely preserved over the years. The wound-badge is as stated neatly maker-marked with the makers'-designation: '65' (as is clearly visible on the back of the badge as can be seen on the pictures) signifying that it deals with a piece that was produced by the desirable, 'Klein & Quenzer'-company based in the town of Idar-Obersteib a.d. Nahe. Of course, are the (regular- ie. thin-shaped- and typical non-magnetic) pin and/or: (typical) catch (-set-up) fully functional and of course present. This piece has never been cleaned nor polished: it shows some minimal dust and/or minimal staining as to be expected: it was, however, never cleaned nor polished!

The attractive cross - which is a non-vaulted ie. non-converse-shaped example as more often encountered - has - I deem - never been cleaned and retains an attractive (albeit minimally tarnished-) age-patina and/or great pronounced detail. This example - which is magnetic as more often seen - comes mounted onto its original (and naturally fully functional) flute-shaped pin and has an unaltered catch (as can be seen on the pictures). The cross - which shows a nicely preserved, 'blackened'- and/or fairly 'satin-like'- ie. somewhat 'matted'-like, black-coloured 'inner-core' - shows some minimal age but is totally void of any real damage: it retains a very nice appearance overall. The cross is just a bit dirty and tarnished simply caused by years of storage and/or moderate wear but retains a great unmessed-with and/or uncleaned, age-patina. The IC on offer here is a typical example that was produced by the: 'Schauerte & Höhfeld'-company as was based in the town of Lüdenscheid. Simply an attractive IC-first-class that was recently uncovered at a private-household in Germany and that was never before part of a collection: I deem that I have priced this attractive and untouched 'LDO-example' accordingly!

Neat, smaller-sized, period WH-instruction-booklet entitled: 'Die Pistole 08 - Beschreibung und Handhabung' (or instruction- ie. training-manual for the P08 pistol) as was published by the: 'Heinz Denckler Verlag' based in Berlin

The smaller-sized booklet - only sized: 15 x 10,5 cms. - is naturally fully complete and retains all its 34 pages - containing various (ie. 37) illustrations and/or glued-in (to be folded out-) leaflet (ie. 'Tafel') - and is just somewhat 'yellowed' caused by normal age and storage for decades. The example on offer here has been used (ie. read) but is void of any damage whatsoever (normal traces of wear and/or age are, however, present as can be seen on the pictures). As possibly known, has this booklet also been reproduced: this is naturally a fine original and/or period example. The neat booklet provides the reader with text and illustrations and gives a complete insight 'on properly using the standard WH pistol model P08 and its various accesoiries' (something that was of course deemed needed within the German army). These sought-after publications - as published by the 'Heinz Denckler Verlag' based in Berlin - were not 'standard-issued' manuals but had to be privately-acquired by the soldiers ie. NCO's and/or officers. The example on offer here shows an inked name (on the first page) that reads: 'Hilmar Ludwig' (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that these small-sized, instruction-manuals are very collectable and can easily be graded 'scarce'.

The piece - that still comes 'tied-together' as issued - shows no wear whatsoever: just some minimal staining is visible simply caused by decades of storage only. The piece is of the larger-sized type (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a very attractive piece that would look awesome if re-mounted on any officers'-dagger!

The truly attractive shoulderstraps - which have the field-grey-coloured- and/or: typical woolen-based 'upperdecks' as executed in typical field-grey-coloured wool - have the desirable bright-pink- (ie. 'rosaroter'-) and/or 'silk-like'-type piping attached and measure approximately 10 cms. in length each. They come naturally mounted onto their original tongues and come in an overall very nice- (ie. fully 'text-book'!) condition overall: the straps were only moderately used and do show some minimal age, wear and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures).

Panzerjäger-Lehr-Truppen' (or: sergeant and presumably instructor who served within an anti- tank- ie. tank-destroyer unit).

Attractive - and actually very rarely encountered! - NJS- (or: 'Nationale Jeugdstorm') dagger ie. 'Fahrtenmesser' (or in Dutch language: 'stormersmes') being a period-altered example that bears the serial-number: 'A 444'

This is attractive - and actually very rarely encountered! - NJS- (or: 'Nationale Jeugdstorm') dagger ie. 'Fahrtenmesser' (or in Dutch language: 'stormersmes') being a period-altered example that comes in a clearly used- ie. somewhat sharpened, condition. The 'NJS' was the the Dutch youth-movement that existed from 1937 to 1945 and that was an NSB-related organisation and Dutch equivalent of the German HJ (ie. 'Hitlerjugend'). The dagger on offer - which is quite small-sized and that measures from top to bottom only 21,5 cms. as to be expected - is regrettably period-altered and misses its enamelled NJS-logo (ie. gull-symbol) in its grips (which has very unusually been repaced by a firmly inserted WWII-period, Dutch coin as can be seen on the pictures). The piece comes with its (undamaged) ivory-white-coloured grips and metal-based- and black-coloured metal scabbard (that retains its functional leather closing-device). The piece was - as always - produced by the famous maker (ie. 'Hersteller') 'Eickhorn' based in the town of Solingen (and also shows the engraved 'Eickhorn'-logo as to be expected). The - as stated above roughly sharpened - blade shows the to be expected motto that reads: 'Moed, Eer en Trouw' (being the Dutch language-translation of: 'Courage, Honor and Loyalty'). Moreover, does it show a unique (low!) serial-number that reads: 'A 444' (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that truly not many if these interesting NJS-daggers survived and I deem that this example can still be professionally restored if wished so. I deem that this example is actually reasonably priced: a fully untouched and complete example would easily fetch the double of my asking-price!
