lach470 Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Hey - well, it took a month (G.damn post office)....but I got a couple buckles today as well as an HJ pin.Thought I'd post this one first as we've been looking at DJ's lately. This one is a rare puppy! So happy to add this one to the collection - it's made by Heinrich Nordwall Dransfeld out of Menden. What is really cool is where the markings are! Don't see that on most of the DJ buckles! Came with original belt too.Yes: ME HAPPY! heh heh heh! Cheers!Rob
lach470 Posted March 19, 2008 Author Posted March 19, 2008 Thank you! I'm quite happy to have this one added to the collection!Cheers!Rob
--dj--Joe Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 Congrats. First example I have seen with the marks in the reverse of the rune.--dj--Joe
lach470 Posted March 19, 2008 Author Posted March 19, 2008 Thanks Joe....It was a first for me too! I've actually learned that the maker is not Dransfeld but rather Karl Wurster who mistakenly marked his buckles with his M1/34 for a short while before he realized that he wasn't supposed to do that. He actually never got an M4 designation so I'm assuming he stopped making these buckles not long afterwards!!Cheers!Rob
