Pieter,
if I (or anybody else for that matter) would always believe what people "state", your collection would be a lot bigger ...you might even have Hitler's underpants!
I could quote a lot of other people (some of them you know and respect very well) which 'state' otherwise. Now what?
And, old eagle eye, look at the photo that must show a S&L in the group offered.

...Dietrich, please convince me why you believe the 935 4 are "post" war. The last set that surfaced in Germany was one to a soldier who was posthumously awarded in 1942, the mappe and a 935 4 S&L cross were sended to the family at the end of the war.
What do we do with all the Schloss Klessheim 935 4 bringbacks?
I really cannot follow.

All I'm saying here (and everywhere else) is that if somebody 'states' something it is by far not true. Live is not that easy.
My comment was in regards to "provenance" of 935-4 and 800-4 and the hasty deduction made from that.
The cross the soldier shows in the "935-4 group" is not an S&L. Now this is the second time a "935-4" group comes up where it doesn't seem to hold water. That does not speak well for this model in regards to actual awarded crosse.

But don't you agree it's rediculous look for photographic evidence of a 935 4 cross,...how can you determine this type from a picture?
