Zoll (Customs) grouping

[jamie7d7]

As I was tidying some books earlier today, I came upon this little grouping that I had completely forgotten about. It was within a plastic envelope hidden in between my many tomes.

It's of an officer of the Third Reich Customs and contains not only a number of award certificates (Customs service Cross / KvK2 with swords) but also some of his family history. There are 2 ancestral records for him and his wife, showing, as required by the Nazis, his family lineage through many generations.

There is also a family log booklet which details their 3 children. The booklet has pages for up to 12 children so I imagine this was used as evidence to support any "Mothers Cross" being awarded.

Finally, there is a post war document, dated 1953 which shows that this chap continued in his employment after the end of the Third Reich.

Cheers

Excellent grouping Jamie!!
Great to have all this from the same man.
I do also have a little interest in the zoll stuff

Thanks Brian, although your "small" collection does outweigh mine somewhat in the £ stakes haha. Lovely daggers.

Haha I still don't have a nice zoll medal as the beautiful one you show!
