Referenced buckles

[lach470]

Hey gang....Not sure if the title is the right wording but I thought I'd start a few threads that show some buckles in my collection that have been used in John Angolia's reference book. First up is a scout buckle.....not as exotic as military buckles but still a nicely toned example and I love the fact that it's the same buckle used on page 301 of Angolia's buckle reference (2nd edit.). These were used from 1926 until April 1933.

Here are some pics!
Cheers!

Next buckle is considered an NSDAP Jugend buckle - but it could be a NSDAP sympathizer buckle. In any case - this one is pictured on page 288 at the bottom. I love these "smallies" - many variants!

Here's a rare bird....an early '36 40mm buckle with the eagle looking to his right (our left). This is certainly one of my fave buckles. Very hard to find. This specimen is pictured on page 73.

Cheers!
