Guys,

All kidding aside, I actually collect Belt's and Belt buckles.

The photo is of an SS Officer Brocade belt and buckle with the "SS hologram" stiched on the belt. You can see it on the upper belt but not on the lower, unless you move the belt from side to side. (Of course not really a hollogram as we know it but superb worksmenship) worth about $900.00, if you can find one.

The left belt buckle is a Weimer era volunteer fire department enlisted buckle, the legend translates to "Defend Your Neighbors Honor God".

The other buckle is an enlisted Fire police buckle worn till about 1936 from Rheinland.
