Reisepass 1939- Shanghai, China

Hi,

This passport might be one of the rarest that I have come across.
It was issued in 1939 by the German General Consulate in Shanghai to a business man. What is truly interesting about it that is has visas to the USSR from December 1939, made at the north-eastern Chinese city of Harbin, then there are the entry cancellations through the Russian frontiers. This is due to the Ribbentrop-Molotov pact several months before. The holder then gets an entry visa done at the German Embassy in Moscow! entry visas to Lithuania and Latvia.
Once in Berlin, the holder gets entry visas to both China and occupied north-east China: Manchuria. Thus returning to Shanghai via Siberia, and remaining there until 1946.
I attached scans. Welcome to comment.

Neil.

My favorite Herr Waffenrock!

Here is my Panzer Col. I do have a question about the Turkish Star. By regulations which side of the tunic was it supposed to be worn on. I have seen period photos of it being worn on both sides. Does any one know?
Many thanks,
Vince
