Luftwaffe Belt & Buckle on Leather Tab
Luftwaffe EM/NCO's blue coloured steel belt-buckle that comes on its original natural coloured leather tab (Koppelschloß mit Lederwiderhalt). Originally the EM/NCO’s buckles were produced with a silver finish until a blue/grey version was introduced around mid-1940, and a tropical olive drab version was introduced in late 1940. Nice blue-grey painted steel example, both the buckle and the leather tab are nicely maker marked by the company of 'H.Aurich', based in Dresden and dated 1940. The buckle is in very good near mint condition. The buckle comes together with its original 80cms long sized leather belt as found together, the belt is nicely maker RB.Nr. marked, the buckle-keeper has bent slighlty. Nice original belt & buckle in very good, almost mint, condition!
