    10-30-B2 Schwimmweste

    I had been looking for a good, clean and complete example for some time and consequently, when this example was offered I snapped it up straight away.

    Any constructive comments and opinions are welcome and I hope the images might prove of interest.

    Regards Richard.


    Starting with an overall shot and the manufacturers label.

              Thanks for the positive comments, I waited a long time to find the right example and I am very pleased with this one.

              Is is possible to determine the manufacturer from the label at all?

              Regards Richard.

                  HI,

                  Gorgeous schwimveste.

                  About the producer, sadly Oranienburg was the concentration camp.
