So cool to see the mail truck pull up with the box from Estonia.

Ebay seller, said the lid was dug on the Tannenberg line. The condition is OK, has quite a bit of paint visible. I’m curious what the white stuff is…

In the pictures I thought it was a white painted stripe, like a traffic controller. But now that I see it, it almost looks like something from the ground.

Cool stuff… would be great if the helmet could tell stories. Did the former owner assume room temperature there in Estonia? Was he captured and left without a helmet? Injured and taken away without a helmet….

??

Take a look:

Rudolf Hess appears in several photos wearing SS adjutant collar insignia. It was for SS adjutants on the staff of Hitler and consisted of mirror image white metal or silver embroidered Wolfsangel. I believe this insignia was introduced in the second half of the 1920s and was regulation wear until the early 1930s.
Can anyone be more specific regarding the dates of introduction and withdrawal. I assume it was withdrawn on the introduction of the adjutant aiguillette, but this is just a guess and firm dates or further information would be appreciated.
Thanks for any help,
Woske.

Hi All,
I’ve been wanting a WWI era US uniform and one popped up on EBay that was real cheap- $15 to be precise. In any case, I guess I should have done a little more research as I cannot ascertain if this is a M1912, M1917 or if I’m wrong on both counts.

This is a no thrills uniform - No insignia, no makers label, just buttons and cloth. Buttons are marked New York City Button Works. There are remnants of insignia on the top right sleeve (unless my eyes are playing tricks on me) as well as on the left, but not as prominent.

As for the breeches, I’m not 100% positive these are military. Could they possible by Boy Scouts or am I mistaken? The color differs from the tunic, so I am positive they are pieced together.

In any case, below are the photos. Any help would be appreciated and will help me to advance my knowledge for when I decide to purchase a better example. Also, any suggestions for websites or books to use as reference guides would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

I have been offered the award document and medal shown in the photos for 195 euro. Any comments on if this is good or bad? This is the only photos I have to judge the items by. I hope this is the correct forum.
