This pair of Reichsleiter collar tabs were once worn by Walter Buch. He was an SS Obergrüppenführer, Reichsleiter and Chief Justice of the Nazi Party Court. My grandfather found, I believe by chance, Buch's cabin on Lake Ammersee while moving SE around the Munich area with the 3rd Army in the spring of 1945. He obtained a small collection of various items from the cabin, which he gave me in 1965.
The gold bullion thread on these tabs have long ago oxidized to a dark brown color. I blame it on the fact my grandfather lived in Miami Florida and I think the high humidity got to them. They've been brown for the 42 yrs I've owned them.
I'm not really a collector, and I'm sure these tabs are the rarest, most pricey items I will ever own. Thanks Gramps.
