Early supporters full face swastika buckles

Okay, so here is that photo.

It is taken 27 September 1935 at Schalkenmehrener Maar.
And what makes it interesting, man who wear that buckle is Gau Amtsleiter/Hauptamtsleiter. Usually can see SA-mans wearing this kind buckle and not political leader.

Great photo thanks for posting. Looks more square than elongated. Here is a swastika buckle that came in a collection I purchased. Might not be a TR period buckle.

Okay, so here is that photo...

In my opinion, a quite remarkable, interesting and important period image.

Do we know who the chap wearing the swastika buckle is by the way? I cannot comment on this Political Leaders uniform and rank, although it matters not as this is simply a stunning period photograph.

Regards and best wishes,

David

Unfortunately we do not know who he is, but I'm workin on it.
The man who stand on his right side, who has rank of Gaustello leiter is Landeshauptmann Kurt Otto from Merseburg.
