Guest Rick Research Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 These were brought around for Epsonization today by my friend who obtained them directly from the veteran who snarfled them up at the Dachau SS depot. He also got some Polizei sleeve eagles there which I'll post under Police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 I know nothing (ZERO) about SS insignia and simply post these as part of many Imperial and Third Reich treasures scanned for a local friend in today's visit. There is apparently much tumult over "Dachau SS" insignia which, frankly my eyes glaze over and I don't read.Rule Number 1 is to Buy The Item & Not The Story... and what we have here are items from an impeccable source, which have never been in commerce-- and which are not GOING to be.

leigh kitchen Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Hang on thouigh - is this in fact a case of "the story" not the item? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Nope. I understand that "anybody" can say "anything" and I am always the first to not buy an unsupported story, but these have come out of the attic from a known and trustworthy source... absent the poisoned taint of money.Never been in commerce, never going to be in commerce. That and all his other brought back items have been impeccable to amazing (scattered about in recent posts). Wish one of my G.I. kin had been as discerning a souvenir hound.
