Just got this nice photo of a policeman in the mail . Looks to me like early 1930's , since no Nazi eagle on the shako front .

The shako seems to have the raised roundel with the black Prussian eagle at center.

Bernd,

Great picture. Are you sure the bayonet doesn't have the clamshell? Looks like it might have it in the last picture you posted.

Bernd,

He looks like a Prussian Policeman to me.

See you this weekend.
