Rare SS-VT M37 field grey EM/NCO field blouse
€9,500.00Rare SS-VT field blouse in uncleaned condition. The garment is a textbook pre war SS-VT or SS-Verfügungstruppe field blouse for a enlisted man. These garments were produced in small numbers pre war. During the war when these jackets were changed for newer models the remaining stock was mostly reissued to other forces. Studying photographs of Landstorm Nederland in 1944 one can observe a large number of these garments reissued. The garment is in good, worn condition without insignia except for one blank collar tab. For sure one of the rarest garments I have had the pleasure to offer and a perfect and unfindable base for a restoration!

Rare SS-VT M37 field grey EM/NCO field blouse marked VA
€15,500.00Exceedingly rare, original pre war SS-Verfügungstruppen grey wool EM/NCO field blouse. The garment looks to be a nearly unworn example without soiling inside. The field blouse has a few small moth damages which I have all photographed but, in my opinion, are not disturbing for the garment. The blouse has not been shortened. The two seams in the back have been taken out but could easily be restored if wished. The garment at one point had a set of officers shoulderboards sewn in but it has no signs of having collar tabs. This can be an indication that this field blouse was worn by the 1. SS Division Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler which in the 1940 campaign did not wear any collar tabs. The garment is marked VA 1937 inside indicating SS-Verfügungsabteilung. Inside the sleeves is the ink markings (5///92) which indicate the size. The garment was found in a Dutch cloth processing plant in 1988 and has been in the same collection eversince. This provenance is documented by the collector at the time in a list where he numbered all items in his collection together with the finding place. The garment is complete with its waist tie straps inside, the hooks for the belt support straps and all the other details you would expect on such a garment. The garment is a perfect and exceedingly rare garment that you will most likely NOT have a chance to acquire again any time soon.
Probably one of the best field blouses I have ever had the chance to offer and I don’t know of a second original example for sale today or in the last year anywhere.

Uniform grouping of Leutnant Seebold, KIA Sirgalla, Narwa 1944
€3,300.00Spectacular uniform grouping named to Leutnant Seebold serving with Grenadier Regiment 44, 11 Infanterie Division, killed in action 26.3.1944 in Sirgalla, west of Narwa. He is buried in Jöhvi, Block 1 Row 21 Grave 1055. The grouping consists of the modified enlisted men M36 field blouse dated 1937, manufactured in Danzig. The garment is modified by a skilled tailor by means of adding a bottle green, pointed officer’s collar and insignia for a Leutnant. The breast is adorned with a Infanterie Sturmabzeichen by SchuCo and a unmarked Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz. There are a number of minor repairs to the tunic I have tried to photograph them as best as possible. The visor is a semi-crusher; a mix between a regular officer’s visor and a crusher which has a great look on a mannequin. The crusher has beautiful hand embroidered insignia which like all the other insignia in the grouping are period applied.
A beautiful and very interesting grouping that could be a good base for further research!
