Another ringman like Herr Himmler! Taken by Himmler's official photographer Bauer of Munich. Maybe he was on his staff? I was able to get a great detailed photo showing the skull on the officer's HR.

and here is the best I could do for you Gaspare.
A scan at 1200 DPI of the original photo and zoom onto the rings. Can anyone see a pattern on the face of the pinky ring?

Hm? Cool pics! Much thanks! After a little working on the last pic i think most possible on the plate of the last ring is a standing lion. Maybe Flemish? Could this fir to the guy?

Thanks...odal that is an interesting observation. I think you are correct! Last night I looked at the original photo with a loop and it looks like a capital S. But it looks differently on this scan. I need to look at it again now that I see the lion you mention!
Can anyone identify the cufftitle? Maybe that could help? Photo was from Bauer in Munich.

I see a standing lion or wolf with a tail going up to the right. Could also be a Berlin bear? An Eickhorn squirrel also comes to mind. The animal appears to be visible to the viewer and it would be upside down to the wearer. Please tell what you all see.

The cufftitle: For me without doubt "SS-San....."

Thanks Lore..
He is with the SS medical detachment...
Could be bear,,but I'm leaning more on Lion.. These photos are called 'near miss' photos. Photos you can see a ring in wear but can't really identify or turn out not to be military related.

Here is the cufftitle he is wearing.
Must be rare. I would like to ID the officer.
I see a reference online that says it refers to an assembly camp for ss escapees from Austria after the attempt on Austrian chancellery in 1934.

Thanks for sharing all the rings Andy!
Impressive looking for sure!
I had a guy bring me a bunch of stuff when I worked in steel mill that I went to high school with!
There was some SS rings field made not honor rings!
He never would sell the stuff but I saw it!

As long as everyone stays clear of that bottom row you'll be safe ..... Andy and I always joke around. Whos selling what and when... But our rings?,,,Why should we sell any of them! They are small and easy to keep. Many different patterns, cool to look at and ponder,'wonder who wore this one!' They'll always be valuable and in an emergency you can throw a 1000 in a shoebox and take off to safety!!
