    Tracie,
    What a wonderful, historically important jacket; thank you for sharing it!
    On the event that you sell it, I can only hope that it finds its way into a collection that will afford it the proper appreciation that I am sure you and your Grandfather would want.
    Best regards,
    B. N. Singer

You won't see another wrap like it for a long long time. The minimum it was worth was at least $50 000. This wasn't your ordinary wrap, the buyer is a vary lucky and knowledgeable man.

          Well Sir, no one would argue that this is not an outstanding and historically important wraparound; as to value, that’s something else. And certainly not to detract from this wonderful item, but, my vote would go for this one, http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...=von+beschwitz

              Billy,

              Your either the buyers son or nephew...or know something the rest of us don't.

              I've been around some pretty high end wraps and there aren't too many that break 50K, and the ones that do, belonged to KC with diamonds winners.

              Help me out a little here on how you reached this figure.

                What a great piece! I don't collect uniforms, but have always sought an out of the woodwork vet acquired panzer wrap. IMO, German uniforms are an ocean of fakes and put togethers. Complete, as worn examples of combat uniforms are far more scarce than many collectors think...especially the wrappers. The vet story, attribution to the original, highly decorated owner, photographic evidence...this one was worth whatever the seller wanted IMO. It is one of the best items I've ever seen posted in the uniform forum.

                  wrapper

                  My letter to Helmut Ritgen has come back after two months with "insufficient address" and his telephone number is no longer valid. I will try to visit his last residence and get the final word .

                    Ritgen

                    Helmut Ritgen is alive and, though in declining health, aware of the information regarding his tunic and captor as I put copies of the information directly in his hads during a brief visit. And he was thankful to receive the info as well.

                        What a shame this unique, “one of its kind” thread has to be polluted by several members; one of whom I would have thought should be above this kind of nonsense!

                          I certainly agree and several posts are deleted.



                          Stick with the topic (the wrapper) please fellows.

                            Sure would be nice to see how it looks now...or see if the new owner left it as is.

                            I am afraid I could not resist putting it back to the way it was in the photos, which only required some light cleaning (vacuum), and some rearranging of badges and a couple of skulls and the honor roll clasp.

                            Definitely a "forever until death do you part" keeper.
