HJ RZM Belt w/Tag

[Gwar]

Jeff, Have you done any research on the makers code Adrian provided some time ago ??
I found a older thread that seem similar but not... L2/954/40.. Only this belt was "Rubbertised" if that is even a word. Ersatz ?? C. Riesel, Berlin... ?? The difference being that particular belt was a "40" and yours is a "41" Curious as to the potential maker... And of course my "Book mark" bar is Maxed out as usual when I need it !! G

Leather makers hard to determine I've been told. On this one, I like the HJ/DJ Koppel tag and the A.H.S stamp the best

Yes... My findings as well.. A little controversial as far as buckle tabs though !! Wim. had a great post on this certain subject as I found too...There were others that had different opinions on the buckle.. But this may be of no consequence regarding your "Belt".. A great find IMO and I hope you enjoy "The Thrill of the hunt and posting new items" as I do.. Happy Thanksgiving Jeff !! G

Good looking belt. Angolia sold off most of his German collection about 15 years ago , I still have the catalog. He kept a lot of his buckles but I bought some nice buckles from him. I stopped after I bought a painted steel KM and a Red Cross. I returned those because the KM smell like it had been painted the day before he shipped it and the DRK was denazified.

Someone on WAF told a story about a major haul of AHS items. Lots of the tan sidecaps, shirts, triangles and other stuff. I don't recall if he mentioned belts but everything was unissued.
