    SS Plaque for Fuhrers Birthday

    Here is a nice marble plaque which measures approx 8x10. It has the SS gorget style eagle on it and a dedication from the Leibstandarte Officer Corps on the occasion of the Fuhrers birthday. The dedication plate appears to be sterling silver. I have never seen one of these before. Does anyone know who they would of been given out to and value? Thanks...Jeff

          For what it's worth, Offizierkorps is written without a space between Offizier and Korps. I doubt whether a group of officers, who should be quite intelligent, would make such an elementary mistake.

            Quite right, and furtheremore, it is Offizierskorps in German, not Offizierkorps.
            (Besides that, the SS would have used the term "Führerkorps" not "Offizierskorps".)
            I am afraid that this is not a period item.

              Thanks for your input gentlemen. If this is post war made, how many others have you seen out there? This is the first one I have seen in 30 years of collecting. For what it is worth this was an indirect vetran purchase. Hard to say which term they would of used definitively but I agree on the spelling. Thanks again...Jeff

                One another fake for sure.

                By the way: I think if the Führerkorps of the Leibstandarte indeed gave something for the Führer´s birthday it would be at least documented within the "Kanzlei des Führers" under Bouhler regarding Hitler´s private matters or officially for the documents of the Reich within the "Präsidialkanzlei des Führers" under Otto Meissner because of Hitler being Reichspräsident from 1934 - 1945 or as being Reichskanzler within the Reichskanzlei under Hans Heinrich Lammers.

                Otherwise such pieces could be document for example within the several SS-organs like the Schwarzes Korps or the FM-issues.
