Jack the Collector Posted August 21, 2020 Share #1 Posted August 21, 2020 As I have stated in a couple of other threads,I have been privileged to buy from a collector I have dealt with for 40 years who is selling entire collection.Instead of creating a large number of threads I am going to post the photos here unless they are of a great significance.Some of these have a cool factor others just tickled my fancy.First up is a set of DRK officer,all are dated May 1941 on the back.

Proud Kraut Posted August 29, 2020 Share #22 Posted August 29, 2020 Caption of BDM Gruppenfuehrer picture is: "Resi und Elli im Einsatzlager im Osten". BDM/HJ caption is tough to read. Seems most words are missing the last letter: Some kind of greetings from a godchild to her godmother as far as I understand. The picture of the Lw NCO is my favourite, thanks for sharing!

Gwar Posted August 29, 2020 Share #23 Posted August 29, 2020 Nice RAD photo, the man with the striped trousers is a Generalarbeitsfuhrer, if he is checking on his Arbeitsgau XVIII Niedersachsen-Ost Gruppe, it could be GAF Wagner, the traditions badge came in two patterns, the first being a solid, heavier with four prongs and then a hollow version that had a pin attachment. An overall great assortment of period photographs and I look forward to more of what you have purchased. G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G Gwar your knowledge of the RAD is telling me you may specialize in that?If so I would love to see some of your goodies.I have never been focused on the RAD.When I started the RAD did not intrigue me and I kick myself now because it was so cheap to buy and I did not.My focus was on the DRK,NSDAP,Reichsbahn and HJ/BDM.So that is the bulk of my collection,I have picked up RAD along the way.

Gwar Posted August 29, 2020 Share #25 Posted August 29, 2020 Jack the Collector, yes my studies include the Reichsarbeitsdienst, that is and has been my focus for several years now, I started with buckles, I owned at one time over 150 RAD buckles, some mint and very scarce / unseen.. Then I began to collect photos, tunics, etc; I love the rich history that sometimes can be found in a simple black and white photo. I will post up some things soon..
