Re: A Rare Political Uniform
Little is known about the short-lived Reichslager für Beamte [National Camp for Officials], shut down at the end of 1939 "for the duration of the war".
Apart from the facility in Bad Tölz (opened in 1937/1938), there was another Reichslager für Beamte at Tutzing. As the name implies, these were actually not schools for political leaders but for civilian officials, who underwent political/ideological indoctrination during short courses, participation in which was compulsory.
The cuff-title "Stellv. d. Führers Reichslager" is often misinterpreted as identifying the deputy of the camp's leader; the text actually stems from the fact that the Reichslager was under the authority of the Stellvertreter des Führers [i.e. Rudolf Heß].
See here for a document of interest...:

Re: A Rare Political Uniform
Great information!. I never realized this organization was so short lived. This explains why this man's uniform was found intact. As he was dismissed from the NSDAP in 1940, the Reichslager was already closed and he evidently returned to his job with the SA and the uniform was stored in a closet.
