What is your favourite SS item from your collection?

[markus]

Hi Gents!

I didn't say the BO was there right now. I was
talking about the origins. Included also were the WW1
EK1 clasp combo, several award docs, eagles, cufftitles
which since then have new homes in Canada, the U.S.A.,
Russia, Germany, Austria, Mexico, etc. pp.

But let's see other peoples' new favorites!

Cheers and have a great Sunday still y'all !

Markus, as far as I am aware the blood order has never been in the USA it was in a very old Austrian collection. The same as the Blood order and GPB document that recently sold,old Austrian collection. so thats the reason I ask if your sure the items you talk about did in fact belong to Sepp 100% sure?

I know they don't have Sepps Blood order,it was in a private collection in Austria. Unless they have a duplicate.

Hi Jon,
What's the matter? We're detroying this nice thread!
Drop me a PM next time. We were just writing eachother
last week.
Sepp's home was luted by U.S. Intelligence shortly after
the war ended. This is were some items fell into the hands
of U.S. soldieres. Another example is Bob Coleman's Dietrich
leather coat with the Oberstgrpfhr boards. Bill Shea's items
while quietly found a new home in the meantime without any
public notice...
Now that being said, I also have one of my Sepp items coming
out of Austria. I once heard Sepp gave items away to fellow
comrades. Whether that is true I have no idea. Who cares?

Let's just enjoy these items and not get too exceited over
who's got what and who doesn't, bla, bla.

I'm gonna take a run and dip in the pool now.

Cheers!

here's my fav....

Mark, I can see that is Waldemar Riefkogel in the photo wearing the Panzer wrap - is that his cap by any chance?

[TonyS]

I know they don't have Sepps Blood order,it was in a private collection in Austria. Unless they have a duplicate.

OOPS - sorry got my wires crossed - I meant the other stuff except the Blood Order.

Anyone know where Sepp's special sword is, that one the LAH officers gave him and old Heini told him never to wear it again?

[Richard P]

here's my fav....

Mark,

Absolutely killer cap. I believe in has been in a book or two? It looks awful familiar. That is a very hard to top item.

When you get tired of it just let me know.
