Hi...... Stumbled across the forum trying to find more info on this piece. After no luck else where on the net thought this was the best hope for an answer.......... Came with a small lot of WWII pennants I bought........ Can't find another like it......... Is it a HJ pennant and if so anyone...
Hi mates,
today I've received a new shirt. The early buttons are hold with rings and are not sewed on. Sadly the bottons at the sleeves are missing. At the right shoulder you can see a repair with a part of brown cloth. I guess no shoulder strap was attached so I think the shirt is an early...
I resently obtained a very unique photograph of an HJ boy displaying some really unique insignia , I have never seen an HJ shoulderstrap with the Life Rune made from litzen .
Heres some new stuff, and some of my old stuff.

Do you think that this box is related to the HJ or NSDAP?

I found this drumhanger, painted black with a white DJ Rune.
Its heavy, mayby cast iron. Buckle shows size.

3 firms were authorized...
Hello all
I have been asked to start an article on the black DJ buckle..

here is a nice early portrait,
