Pair of 'Schutzpolizei' Officer's Collar Tabs

Description

Pair of 'Schutzpolizei des Reichs' Officer's Collar Tabs (Kragenspiegel). The police were divided into eight assorted branches of service and during the restructuring the different police agencies were assigned specific identifying 'Truppenfarbe' (Branch Colors), with green truppenfarbe being allocated to the 'Schutzpolizei des Reichs' (National Protection Police). The German Police had no enlisted ranks with the lowest rank being an 'Unterwachtmeister' which was equivalent to the German army rank of Unteroffizier. This is a pair of 'Schutzpolizei des Reichs' officer's collar-tabs. The collar-tabs are nicely hand-embroidered in silver on a light green woolen underlay. The buckram backing material is missing. Nice original pair in good used and clearly tunic removed condition!
