Extremely rare Hitler Youth cloth sports patch "HJ"

[Garry]

Fantastic Darin. This is one of the earliest pieces of HJ insignia and will not have been recognised as such by very many people I wouldn't have thought. You must be very pleased

If I were still actively collecting I would definitely have been bidding against you and the seller would quite possibly have been able to play us off against each other once we got in touch with him privately after the auction was pulled

Really a great find

Hello

I found this piece of cloth on the internet. Really don't know the use except that the insignia is the same as Darin.

Interesting item Lauri. I would like to see more detailed photos of this.

It looks like a small pennant for a car ? Can you get the actual size of it ?

 

[pimpf]

I only have these pictures unfortunately. The pennant gives the scale.

Here two more have surfaced at the "Max" show. Photo quality is poor, I resized it from another forum. Impossible to tell from the photo if they are original sadly. Somebody has a chance possibly to grab a rare insignia if they are at the show!

I find these pictures on another forum. If I believe some collectors, Max Show was interesting this year .....!
I have wished to have them for my collection too.

Yes Widukind, the strap is fantastic. The first time I've seen this one in a collection.

Hello,

Here is the strap in (what I think are) his real colors. The embroidery is dark brown and the piping seems to be : black / yellow... and it should be : carmine / gold (Stab der obersten SA.‑Führung 1932-1933).

Best regards

An interesting insignia that matches these straps.



Admin Edit: thread title subsequently changed for forum search engine.

Great find! I thought I would never see any others and that guy that sold it had no idea what a rare item he had. My 1st one was the chainstitched version and my bevo one is in the 2 volume book Sports and the Third Reich. I had a display of sport items at this years MAX show to help bring attention to that topic. If all goes well and I get the tables I want Then There will be a massive display next year.

Hi Joe,
welcome to this forum !

Hello Gunny and welcome to the forum! The bevo patch in Rob's book was also owned by me at one point. Rob had identified it for me after I sent it to a collector in Texas for help, and I gave him permission to photograph it for his book, he's a great guy and very helpful.
