Beschreibung

220 pages. Illustrated covers. Illustrations. Bibliography. Robin Lumsden MA is a Police Inspector with the Fyfe constabulary. He is an expert on the history of Hitler's Third Reich and on the SS in particular. He has written six books on the subject, as well as a large number of articles over the years for military magazines. Heavy demand has created an international market in fake Third Reich uniforms, equipment and decorations. In this unique volume, over 200 photographs display several hundred fakes side-by-side with the authentic originals. Both are described in meticulous detail, making for two reference books in one. The Waffen-SS continues to hold a position of unique interest, and this title, first published in 1994, offers guidance to collectors and others on the subject of their uniforms and insignia. An invaluable reference which provides a graphic selection of wartime photographs showing genuine and original uniforms.
