Newbie here. Normally I collect daggers but would like to buy a HJ &/ or leader uniform. I simply don't know who I can trust, can you offer up some help w/ some web sites? To date , I haven't seen one offered up on this site.

So either I've posted in the wrong place or there aren't any honest dealers out there? Steve

I don't know of anyone selling a HJ or leaders uniform but there are many good honest dealers and collectors you can buy from.Check past threads about good / bad dealers and HJ uniforms in general.You'll be able to get a feel for who you can trust.You can try the big name dealers like Bill Shea ( www.therupturedduck.com ) or my friends sites www.JohnCasino.com and www.germanwarbooty.com . If they don't have what your looking for leave them a "Wanted List". Sooner or later your bound to find what your looking for.I just picked up my first HJ shirt Saturday after 12 years collecting. Good hunting!

Thanks Russ.I just picked up a pair of the winter black corduroy shorts and an armband.I put a SA cross strap on untill I could find the proper one.Lots of little bits and pieces to pick up still,but that's half the fun of collecting.A proper sized mannequin would be a big help also.

Great display Macki. Does the brown shirt have awards loops sewn to it or are the pins pinned through the shirt it's self?

Thanks Macki,I wanted to add a few accessory's and not sure how the HJ did it.I don't want to do any damage.Maybe just put a HJ pin and a tinnie as Russ suggested.
Steve,as you can see most uniform displays come together piece by piece from different sources.Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Well fellows, I am really discouraged now. How am I to put a collection together when yall have all the goodies? I know, be patient. Anyone know where I can buy some of that patience, I mean right now !

Believe me there's lots more stuff out there. I don't know about the thing you refer to as patience. I certainly don't have any of that  .

Macki , Your Collection looks fantastic !! I love seeing a diverse selection ..much harder collecting that way but , it's a better representation of the various Uniforms the TR had. That RLB looks great in the background ...I'm still looking for one for my collection.

A long time ago I use to have more Full Mannequins but ..it started to look like a Nazi ****tail Party so ...I switched to just Torso's ..that gave me a lot more room ..but , mine still looks like a Nazi Flea Market because I'm cramped too

65 all in one house! Wow that must be awesome. I've been wondering where the best place to get a full mannequin would be. Any sugestions would be greatly appreciated. Hope I didn't ruin your thread. Your displays and collections are wonderful! Thanks, JohnJ
