Description
Stellar example of a SS-Police brocade belt set that displays the woven pattern of alternating SS runes with oakleaves. You will also see the alternating black and aluminum border and a crisp Assmann produced aluminum belt buckle. The inside shows the blue/grey police color fabric. This set is mint and has zero imperfections, would be a great set for a mannequin or simply to put in a display case.
Note – On June 17th 1936, Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler was appointed to the newly created position of Chef der Deutschen Polizei im Reichsministerium des Innern, (Chief of the German Police in the National Ministry of the Interior), effectively giving him full control of all police agencies within Germany including the Feuerschutzpolizei, (Fire Protection Police). As a result of this appointment and the restructuring of all the separate German state police into a single national police force new regulations were instituted to bring about uniformity in dress for all police through-out the country.
