    1. Lots to like in this photo. HJ wearing converted Dutch uniform is new to me. Congrats on a rare photo. Cheers, Larry
    2. ​Thanks very much Alex. One of the best threads here. Thanks to all who have contributed their work. Here are some more outdoors colourisations. Cheers, Larry
    3. Thank you. I would like to know the year this photo was taken. He doesn't seem to be wearing shoulder boards but there is a heavy seam on the shoulders of his jacket. He is also wearing a LW overseas cap, was this a common practice? Cheers Larry
    4. From an Inf. Rgt. 154 album. Photo showing an MG34 position in a forest on the Leningrad front. Top photo shows the men are relaxed, the sun is low on the horizon. Bottom photo: Alarm!! Men are now on high alert, helmets on and weapons ready. They peer into the sun, a likely direction that the enemy would attack from. Men are on the move behind them. Cheers, Larry
    5. Same theme as the one above. All these photos are from my personal collection. Cheers, Larry
    6. I enjoy colouring outdoors scenes. Here is another I did some time ago.
    7. Nice work Alex. I have not done many colourisations lately. Here is an old one. Cheers, Larry
    8. I agree, he joined the Party at an early age. Obviously he is too young to be a WW1 vet. He wears numbers for Infantry Regiment 116 on his shoulder tabs so 1935 would be too early as this regiment was not formed until 1936. Looks like he is wearing an M35 tunic though. So 1936 -37 would be my guess when the photo was taken. Cheers, Larry
    9. Nice photo. I would say they are father, mother and son. The Obergefreiter could be a WW1 vet. Can't see his medal bar properly but he's wearing the KM artillery Mechanic trade specialist badge. Another GPB worn on a Heer uniform. Cheers, Larry
    10. Wonderful Political Leader photos also showing matched set of GPBs in wear. I see he is also wearing a 1929 Nurnberg Party Day Badge. Very nice! Cheers, Larry
    11. Hi Morten, Thanks for your nice comments. Please post your photo. Photos of this badge don't come up for sale very often as only the first 100,000 people to join the NSDAP received one. Here is a photo of Wilhelm Krieper (left) with his brother Rupert. Wilhelm is wearing ribbons for EK 2, Ost Medal, a Golden Party Badge, EK 1 and LW Ground Assault badge. Cheers, Larry
    12. Hi, Just added this nice photo to my wedding portrait collection. It shows a Political Leader, his bride and a Flower Girl. He is wearing a matched set of Golden Party Badges. This is not seen very often as wearing the complete set on a uniform was against regulations. Does anyone else have GPB in wear photos, if so please post them here. Cheers, Larry
    13. Very nice Paul. Do you know what administrative branch the colour of the tabs denotes. I have a few LW admin portraits but it is next to impossible to know what branch they served in when looking at B&W photos. Cheers, Larry
    14. Unfortunately I have not seen any inter-war MG's in Australia. Here is another photo showing a couple of MG's on a dune at Dunkirk. Cheers, Larry
    15. I stand corrected. Should have looked at the pips on his shoulder straps. Cheers, Larry
