Gauleiter's Coat

[Pascal Bernhard]

Do you have the Volksturm armband that went it? If so, I would restore it to the jacket- there are a few pics of Gauleiters and other high ranking Party Officials fighting with the Volksturm in the final days of the defence of the Reich...

OR a "Gauleiter" Armband !


Like overcoats, it's "typical" German

Yes, i have it around here somewhere. I will probably ad it on, to restore it back to how it looked the last days of the Reich.

I have had a few mails on it, stating that it's probably Gauleiter Karl Hanke's coat?

That was my first idea, although they are pretty hard to find from what i have experienced. And as this had a Volkssturm armband, i'll probably ad that one.

A beautiful coat you have there, i see you are over at the dark side to

Thank you very much gentlemen !

The coat is attributed to Hinrich Lohse.

You sure Lohse would have fit this coat ?

I thought it might be possible as this tunic Appears to have been Lohse's, no name tag in that one either as far as i know. The coat was found with sveral other objects owned by Lohse, but no other provenance.

I raised the same concern there ...

Sorry, but I don't buy it. But there are others, of course.
