UBB.threads Forums Edged Weapons Army, Navy, and Luftwaffe Forum Photos with DLV55 dagger.

Colleagues, with this post I want to "ask audience" for help. I'm currently collecting information on DLV55 Dagger, ultimately with the view to create a reference website on manufactures of this dagger and their peculiar features. This dagger along with the SA dagger was one of the earliest patterns of edged weapon of the Third Reich. Also the time of creation of these daggers almost coincide. Due to my previous research on FHH dagger I had to scrutinize a huge amount of period photos from all available on-line stock image companies, so I`ve seen really many images, but I`m sure that in private collections there might be unknown to me images that can help clarify some issues and with my research in general. So, if anybody has information or relevant images, I`d be very thankful for your help. Below there is some information to consider:
1. The earliest photo of the DLV55 dagger is dated January 1934, Goering and Hitler at the premiere of the film "Wilhelm Tell."
2. Summer 1934. Goering wearing a dagger. credit: Deutsche Lufthansa/W.P.B.R. Saris
3. An interesting photo of a group of LF officers in a new uniform introduced after 1935, but some of them wearing long daggers.
4. Walter Wever since September 1, 1933, the commander of the Reichsluftfahrtministerium. Since March 1, 1935, he became the first Chief of Staff of the Luftwaffe. Image as of 1936.
