CONGRATULATIONS

One of the very few known " textbook " examples in existance.
This single strap in worth 450 to 750 by itself .
I own a pair that you can view in my album .

 

[Gefolgschaft]

Very nice one Lauri. I love it. Well done. As Joe says very difficult to find and valuble.

 

[Albrecht]

AMAZING! I think is a shoulder board what all collectors would wish in his collection

In my opinion , I do believe that this pattern of RJF straps with the carmine piping would have an RJF Gefolgschaft triangle as shown instead of the RJF stab as pictured in my lot .

By the way , I got OUTBID on this one a year ago on ebay at 1,265 US Dollars .

I'm not good in this matter, so can someone explain who they were and what do RJF Gefolgschaft?
These are members of the Gefolgschaft command or the general command of Gefolgschafts?

 

[Joe B]

I am not totaly sure , however ; I believe that RJF Gefolgschaft were lower level members utilized as clerks , drivers , technicians , trusted and merited Hitlerjugend etc too the staff members of the RJF.
The RJF stab were those members of a higher level that were actual advisors and members that held a higher level of authority .

 

[pimpf]

Thanks for the explanation and the pics, RJF triangles seem to be much harder to find, so congrats for this set!

 

[Gefolgschaft]

Set for an Obergefolgschaftsführer of the RJF Stab from my collection.

Hello Darin

In perfectly shaped and certainly rarer also ! I'm a bit confused with the colors, what's the difference between silver, carmine or pink piping ?

 

[Joe B]

I believe carmine was for the assisting members attached to the staff and white was for actual staff members . Silver was for members who held an actual leadership role .
I could be wrong though . More opinions are welcome .

Condensed because there's more to the RJF and some things changed over time but pretty much correct without going into a huge ammount of detail Joe. Also pretty much correct regarding the RJF Gefolgschaft triangle, although the carmine straps were also worn in combination with the Stab triangle also.

 

[Garry]

The Stammführer of Reichsbann B (Blinde) and Reichsbann G (Gehörgeschädigte) also wore the RJF-Gefolgschaft triangle and they most certainly weren't 'clerks or drivers'

 

[Gefolgschaft]

Agreed Garry. There's a lot of information on the RJF and what's been posted here so far is pretty condensed IMO.

 

[pimpf]

Thank you for the explanation.

 

[Gefolgschaft]

The price was very cheap for this strap Lauri. A big congratulations to you!!

 

[pimpf]

Indeed an affordable price, like the the pair who was sold on the Guild. Surprising!

 

[pimpf]
