Hi everyone! Pictured is a concentration camp guard watch coat. I have had this discussed on another forum but I would like your thoughts on it. Here is the link to the other forum: http://www.wehrmacht-awards.com/forums/sho...ad.php?t=224308 This is my first SS item and I have been doing a lot of research on the subject and with help of other SS collectors I feel that the coat is good. The eagle is zig-zag sewn and it does not go through the lining. All of the origional thread is in tact so it is not a post war add on. The eagle is according to a well known SS collector, a rare embroidered version. All comments welcome. Cheers! Steve

Thanks guys! Steve

This picture didn't quite download? Slight mis-match in the tress. Steve

Hi all, I have been looking at this pair of tropical shoulder straps and would like your opinions on them. They look pretty good to me. All comments welcome. Steve

Paul, Ooops! I meant RLM. My bad. I didn't know that LW medical corps didn't have band members? Steve

Paul, Seems like the tabs are a dark waffenfarbe? Pioneer, medical? What is your guess? great photo. Steve

Richard, that second helm is fantastic! I always keep my eyes open for DD Police, combat helms. At the moment a mint M35 would do Paul, I don't think there was a gold police decal. I think the SE decals have a gold tone to the sliver backing? Steve

Love these Police DD's! They are sort of like SS helms when you just have the national symbol facing out on the shelf. I fooled a few of my friends stating they were SS helms. Wasn't till I showed them the other side that they figured it out. Steve

The nasty swaz.....ooooh the swaz.

Decal. This helm looks better in real life! Steve

Hi Richard! Thank you for the complement! Pictured above was my first Police helm. I bought another helm 3 days later which I'm now posting. This is a Q64 with rough combat finish. What do you think? Steve

Last one.

hi Paul, This is my second M42. The first I sold 23 years ago which I still regret even to this day! Steve

Here is a late addition to my fledgling Police Collection, a SE66, M40, DD Helm with smooth combat green paint. The police decal has a real nice glod tone to it! Steve

Lasy one
