Title Schutzpolizei shako cockade, Weimar era
Nationality German
Period c 1933
Sold

This is almost certainly a late Weimar era piece on account of the 'gold', as opposed to the white colour. By 1936 most of these remains of the Weimar Republic had been absorbed by Himmler's polce state, certainly as far as police uniforms went. Even after 1936 some Feurwehr units still wore their old Land insignia on belt buckles for instance.

It is made of aluminium, with a steel support in EPNS finish. The condition is good.

Sword arrived today. Fabulous. This is an excellent example of a fighting sword of its period, and a real gem. The 1828 Pattern is such a gorgeous sword, and this is a fine example. Even my bride is impressed and she doesn’t really get swords.
