UBB.threads Forums Uniform & Accessories Miscellaneous German Uniforms Hilter Youth shoulder boards and straps.

These are most of my HJ boards and straps. I have been collecting for about 5 months now.

Some DJ leaders shoulder boards, much stiffer in construction than the HJ style of straps.

A few newer additions from the last month or so.

nice to see your collection here

PAUL

Very nice.
I only have a couple - here are mine.

Kevin, very nice. If you only have a few those are the few to have, also nice on the post 38 Landjahr. Thanks for sharing the photo.

Just a few updates. Here's more or less an overview of many of my straps. Picture quality is not the best, hard to fit them all in.

HJ Flakhelfer. This set appears to have grey piping, but it's just really dirty. Close inspection reveals the correct color where the piping meets the strap base.

DJ 1933 pattern Oberbann Sigrune set.

Here's an interesting set. Bann 335 Schwienfurt. It's sort of a timeline for the changes in HJ shoulder straps from the Unterbann system through the final post 1938 pattern.

Here's most of the numbered straps I have now.

I have a lot of boards, but also have a small group of specialized insignia:

Great display, thanks for showing it.

SOME VERY NICE DISPLAYS HERE a few I am hoping SANTA brings but probably coal again this year
LOOKING for AHS and NPEA stuff if reasonable

PAUL

RON what is that cuff title ??

PAUL

This is the cuff title used at the Political School at Anhalt (a youth school for party official's sons located at Ballenstedt) which became an NPEA School in the early 1930s.
Not much is known as whether it was an NPEA School at the same time or was converted a short time later as the cufftitle was worn in the first years when it became an NPEA School.
I have a photograph album from the Anhalt School during this period and almost all of the teachers remained for the NPEA and Rust was an inspector during the period and I have photos of him at the school prior to the issue of the NPEA Dagger but they show an HJ Knife with the early Pack configuration of the larger crossguard as seen in a couple of photos of the HJ Leaders of the period.

I have a rare ANHALT RAD cuff and thought there was a similarity thanks for the info

PAUL

Getting out of control.

A few nicer straps I've added lately to show.

Another AHS pair.

Oberbannfuhrer in gold celleon to signify an Oberbannfuhrer serving as a Gebietsfuhrer. Normally Oberbannfuhrer straps are in silver unless serving in this special capacity.

Hauptgefolgschaftsfuhrer set.

Excellent display and nice additions. That's quite a grouping Frank.

A few that I've added lately. Early second pattern Feldscher Hauptarzt.

Post 1938 Landjahr Gefolgschaftsfuhrer. These were modified by the addition of the silver twist cord piping on the outside for a member of the Bann staff.

Oberstammfuhrer on the staff of Gebiet 15 Mosselland. Modified to a slip on style by the addition of a leather tounge on the reverse.

Frank, nice set.

I do not recall seeing a retaining strip to keep the tounge in place before. Was this common or would this have been a wearer adaptation? Same with the leather, owner adapted?

Two varities of post 1938 straps were made, one style in slip on with the tounge and one style in sew on without. The early versions with the tounge are modified,I've only encountered sew in variety on the pre 1938 HJ straps. Same with the leather Gebeitstab shown.

Thank you much. That's one dedicated collection you have there.

YOU HAVE BEEN PICKING UP SOME NICE PIECES LOVE THE Feldscher Hauptarz SET VERY RARE

Paul

You've been doing pretty well on pickups also Paul. The Feldschar set was expensive but hard to find.

A few new ones added in the last couple of weeks.

Some more have been added lately. Here's some of the nicer examples.

Some group shots I took today. Trying to get better at photographing items. Still need improvement.

Great thread you started. A pleasure viewing your collection.

The pics. look pretty good to me.

Look great!
