3,300.00

Spectacular 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!
