SCHUMA UNIFORMS - 1941 & 1942 & 1943+

It is very interesting to see the MARKED Schuma Uniform Transition from:

1941 - 'Red Army' Uniform Like in 1941,
1942 - to a 'Mixed Czarist Partisan' Look in 1942,
1943 + to the 'Germanic' familiar SCHUMA Uniform of 1943+

1941 - he wears pre war Latvian uniform, don't red army

Thanks Semenov,

"...1941 - he wears pre war Latvian uniform, Not the red army..."

Appreciate your Input! I don't know those Uniforms very well.

Do you have any Schuma related items that you can Share? Txs, Dave/dblmed

NIce Schuma Items.

DaveJ, ......... A very nice Collection of Schuma Cloth Items!!!

The Black Bullion Sleeve Patch is not seen as often as the Aluminum / 'Silver' Thread on the Green Background. (Neither are 'common.')

Pricing of Schuma Items is Interesting (to me for sure). Since you requested a general Pricing Guide, here is one which is just my own Opinion:

1) Schuma Small Black Cap Emblems - $35 - $75 (Depending on who is selling, varies very widely - the most of ANY Schuma item.)
2) Schuma Aluminum / 'Silver' Thread on the Green Background Sleeve Patch - is $150 - $175 usually.
3) Schuma Green Thread on the Green Background Sleeve Patch is less - is $100 - $150 usually, but varies a lot based on Buyer / Seller Knowledge.
4) Schuma Collar Tabs [Really varies - Singles @ $75 + and a Matched Set @ $150, or more - but only from someone interested in Schuma.
5) Schuma Black Bullion Patch - not seen as often - should bring $200 from someone interested in Schuma.
6) Schuma Boards - Green Edged & Aluminum / 'Silver' Thread Edged are the most commonly found - usually about $250, if in great condition, less, if any problems.
7) Schuma 'Odd Colors' - Collectors will pay a bit more for the ODD Schuma Colors of Orange, Red, Pink and Light Green.

Just my Opinion. ................Hope that it is helpful ..... Txs, Dave/dblmed

Here is a pair of schuma boards I just picked up yesterday at a show. They are a carmine red color, similar to vet color piping on heer boards. I would venture Schuma firepolice? Never seen another in this color. They are late war.

Schuma OFFICER'S Boards - 2 Variations

Schuma OFFICER'S Boards - 2 Variations-TOP

With the help of a friend (HK), and his keen eyes, I have been able to match up my mis-matched Schuma OFFICER'S Boards. They look pretty much the same on the top side. ...... Dave/dblmed

But on the reverse, we see that they have 2 different types of fabric used. So they must have been made by different makers, or at different times. Interesting variations. Txs ...... Dave/dblmed

Maybe this red is really Carmine? Looks pretty red though to me. I found 2 sleeve patches which seem to match up with them, 1 used and 1 unissued. Dave/dblmed
