Description
Here’s your chance to own a beautiful NSDAP brown shirt for an early Kreisleiter. The awards and belt are for photographic purposes only and are not included in this listing, only the shirt itself is for sale. The shirt originally came into my possession with a tinnie stuck through the right breast pocket. It is impossible to know when this was added but there are permanent holes for a pin now. What makes this one special is the fact that there is a set of loops for a badge on the left breast pocket area. The collar tabs are neatly hand sewn to the collar and the internal RZM tag has been practically washed out but is still present so this shirt clearly was period worn. Internal belt books which are gold washed aluminum. Removable RZM marked buttons and the party armband is lightly tacked to the shirt itself. CLICK HERE to view more images of this item! The National Socialist German Workers’ Party (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, abbreviated NSDAP), was a far-right political party in Germany that was active between 1920 and 1945, that created and supported the ideology of National Socialism. The Nazi Party emerged from the German nationalist, racist and populist Freikorps paramilitary culture, which fought against the communist uprisings in post-World War I Germany. Initially, Nazi political strategy focused on anti-big business, anti-bourgeois, and anti-capitalist rhetoric, although this was later downplayed to gain the support of business leaders, and in the 1930s the party’s main focus shifted to anti-Semitic and anti-Marxist themes. Adolf Hitler, the party’s leader since 1921, was appointed Chancellor of Germany by President Paul von Hindenburg on 30 January 1933. Hitler rapidly established a totalitarian regime known as the Third Reich. After the death of President Hindenburg on 2 August 1934, Hitler merged the offices of party leader, head of state and chief of government in one, taking the title of Führer und Reichskanzler. The NSDAP would control Germany until the end of the war. Free shipping ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD & I don’t charge PayPal fees like some of the other guys!
