Hi can anyone confim if this partial cuff if from one of the veterans orgs or what
PAUL
If that is a genuine CT it is a very rae SA band for SA-Standarte 39 of Gruppe Niederrhein who were awarded this Honour Title after Albertb Leo Schlageter who was executed by the French in May 1923.
What is the other Schlageter piece you have there?
Hi the other piece is a table commemorative plaque for him. These are real Canadian vet bring back, THE cuff unfortuately has been cut down for mounting in the scrap book.
PAUL
Hi Paul...Nevertheless, a rare thing. These SA Honour titles are seldom seen. You should look out for one of the Schlageter Awards to go with these items!
yes have seen them and will take that advise. Any thoughts on value in this condition,I got the set very reasonable.
PAUL
Paul...cut-down reduces value greatly, and for the other item you would have to find someone who was 'into' Schlageter. I would have thought about $300 for the CT and $100 for the other. IMHO!
THANKS sounds good. The ct is fragile definate been there glad to have them
thanks PAUL
rare heh!!
Manions Auctions just this past week posted 2 of these... 1 cut up a little also
Old WW2 vets lie just like any body else on where relics came from.
I have sold more fake/repro relics to ww2 vets, they say they are going to show grandkids ''what they ''captured during the war. also, a lot of these guys are in the collecting/resale of relics business just like we younger dealers
FUNNY never saw them where they listed in the private auctions section ?
PAUL
There is one there, in the regular auction, and it is CUT down also, but only on 1 side.
Makes you kind of wonder, if so rare, why all of a sudden they npop up.
Go to category F16... Other SA Insigna
lot # 5993346
this reminds me of ..remember several years ago The Ruptured Duck all of a sudden had 2
of the Espanien cuff bands, at the same time the Pakistani companies came out with their versions...
DO not know but mine is a confirmed ver bringback so that is all that matters
