photographed while in the Coleman treasure trove. Since sold to another collector. Found by Shea at the start of the decade. Perhaps colleague Coleman can tell us about this piece.

A uniform of this rank for an Allgem. SS officers sold recently from the Canadian prestige site. It had an Abschnitt cuff title and the Oswald Pohl administrative school Raute.
another image of this uniform, made by the firm of C. Louis Weber, a major uniform tailor in northern Germany.
The skeptic will note that this uniform has later collar patches, but this man apparently was a rear echelon (Standortverwaltung d. Waffen SS) figure, who might have retained his black uniform. Despite the order that this uniform no longer be worn, plainly many such uniforms endured. There was a large rear area training, supply, and logistics base to the Waffen SS, with various garrison commanders for certain leading municipalities.
All things rear are wounderful
Others do not share your pluralistic sentiment, but thank you for the observation. My only criterion: the thing should be authentic. The fetish for Ritterkreuztraeger Untersturmfuehrer Hosenbrummer's Feldbluse is less than practical.
