The rarest signal "Blitz colours



The two rarest colors would have to be:

Grey - Propaganda Troops (Est. 1944)

Orange - Recruiting / Military Police.

Other scarce colours are;

Copper brown - Recon

Maroon - Nebelwerfer

Blue - Medical

Purple - chaplains assistants (if they even exist)

Any colour blitz on reed green HBT material

Another rare variation would be the Pink blitz on black wool for wear by signal qualified Panzer troops.

The lemon yellow blitzes on black wool or BeVo are actually for the female signal personell which are scarce but not rare.

Thank you for your break down, Diane. I bet that if it exists, the violet blitz would be the Holy Grail! The grey one was the first one I bought. The one I would kill for is the orange!


Best regards

Paul, nice collection man !! Also, Chris V, you would have to be the guru on cloth !!! I have never seen so much cloth in one place. Ace !!
Ed, I got a real nice heavy embroidery HH marked infanterie M36 off Peter Whamond. Thanks for that tip. And Mike K, you KNOW I need those blitz's !!!

Thanks to all who posted, both pics and links. I guess its only fair I should include my humble little blitz collection. First off is the total that I have so far.
Second pic is 3 "rare" ones; early rose pink panzer on black, white outlined Panzerpionere on black, nebelwerfer M36 and my new infanterie "heavy".
THE FELDGENDARMERIE IN THE FIRST PIC,SECOND ROW,RIGHT, IS FAKE; THIS COMES FROM THE SITE THAT ED POINTED OUT. BEWARE ANY BLITZES IN A BLUE GREY SHADE. THEY ARE VERY GOOD EMBROIDERY
