Small but nice grouping to an SS- Obersturmführer serving with SS-Totenkopf-Standarte 7 (Brünn). He graduated from SS-Junkerschule Braunschweig. Part of the grouping is his aiguillette as well as his brocade belt which you see on his wedding portrait. Furthermore his visor cap officer's chin straps and a nice black leather sword hanger.
Very rare brocade belt for an Allgemeine-SS leader. Black cloth backing without mothing. Original leather flag with opened seam. Both belt loops are here. The brocade shows minor corrosion. A bend of the belt to the reverse part. Length: 93cm
Nice photographs!
One shows him with his family in black Allgemeine-SS uniform. He wears the "SS-Schule Braunschweig". A wedding photo is 23.12.1939 dated. Two other SS-Totenkopfverbände officers next to them (Obersturmbannführer Martin and Untersturmführer Steher). It was taken in Brünn.
It is shocking to see how much he aged during the war time. Wedding portraits show him as a young man in 1939. Other photos which can't have been taken later than 2-3 years after 1939 show him looking 10 years older.
