17th INFANTRY REGIMENT "BRAUNSCHWEIG" GROUP

€4,295.00

Awesome group belonged to a NCO of the 17th Infantry Regiment "Braunschweig".

The group consists of:

- Waffenrock with first class aiguilette for precise shooting

- Visor cap with traditional "Braunschweig" early skull

- Pants

- Belt + Belt Buckle

- Suitcase

Waffenrock is in excellent condition, complete with its originally mounted insigna and fully lined with rayon. The inner pocket shows the approval stamp of the 1st company of the 17 Infantry Regiment (Geprüft I/I.R.17). The right should board still has attached the original paper tag with the price.

Visor cap remains in excellent condition too, it shows slightly usage and the celluloid diamond is still partially present; it was manufactured by the famous hats maker Peküro. The lining is complete and the sweatband is still soft; inside the sweatband is well visible the stamp of the command of the Infantry Regiment 17 (Stab. /I.R.17).

Pants too shows some usage and a light discoloration, anyway they are in great condition.

Belt and belt buckle are of the early type, belt buckle is made in aluminium and in two parts, with the disc with the national eagle attached with 4 prongs to the base of the buckle. All the items are stored in a vinyl suitcase.

This is an awesome group, incredibly rare to find especially considering that everything comes from the same soldier. A great piece of history from one of the most famous Wehrmacht units, perfect for display.
