Are you saying you collect only holsters!
This piece should interest you. It is a commercial PP holster Unmarked brown and with front flap scarification. What makes it very interesting is that it is the piece pictured in the popular reference book (at least in my country) German Pistols and Holsters 1934-1945, VOLUME III by LL. COL. Robert D. Whittington III, U.S. Army (RET). The piece appears on page 76, listed as: Figure 59: Walther PP breakaway. No Markings. Red/Brown cowhide. Unknown Category. Original Holster for Nazi Tirolean Walther PP, serial # 135347P, (I wonder what has happened to this gun as I do not have it with the holster), it goes on: illustrated on page 283 of Volume II. Steel button. Height : 7.12 inches (182mm). Maximum flap width 5.12 inches (130). Stout Photo/Author's collection.
I have included pics of the volume cover and page for reference. If you were looking directly at both you could see the match is unmistakable.

Hi! It's definitely a one piecer....These are tricky. First take on this one is that it's a good one. The stitiching looks good but closeups would be nice. These are considered late war type armbands. They go for about $65 I think. The three piece are the better type - earlier made and go for considerably more. You can find two piece examples as well.
Hope that helps!
Cheers!
Rob
Here is some of the stitching

A picture of the inside would help greatly....the tinnie is a HJ tinnie. The armband looks to be late war one piece construction. A lot of reproduced pieces are one piecers. A look at the inside and the closeup of the stitching would help.

Here is the inside

Better Photo of Bar

Very hard to find this 18 year device mounted... nice bar
I got a question. In WWI when the Iron Cross was awarded was there not also awarded a wound badge as well? This was with the bar and if it belongs with it I don't want to break them apart. Opinions please.

Who can tell me what this tinnie is for!

That's a great nazi HP-35!
I really enjoy this one and I considered as one of the best pistols ever made.
I'm still looking for one in decent shape down here in South America, but it has been a tough mission.
Congratulations,
Douglas
Maybe you would like to buy this one!
