Should have made myself clear, it is Hamburg-America Shipping line (HAL) and not LAH

A lot of these show up and are sold by dealers as SS but they are not.

this is indeed the Logo of the HAPAG LLOYD Shipping Company on your plate and very often is offered as Leibstandarte.


..here are some forks showing the early and later Leibstandarte Monogram IMO original LAH Cutlery...compare the Monogram and youll notice the difference..also the order of the letters.. first the "L" in front..then "A" and last the "H"

Thanks David, The item was on craigslist and stated it came from Göring's Obersalzberg House......Nothing about SS.....That was my faux pas.....It started out being offered at $100.....Then somebody offered him $600......So, the listing was changed to best offer.....It's about 240 miles (one way) for me to drive and see, so I will kindly pass, knowing it's not from the 1st SS....Bodes
