I am also from Australia, fantastic video Alex I always love the reviews with Mr Weitze I’m also a long time customer of his he has the best of the best thanks for sharing
OK, I have a possible dumb question; Panzer officer uniform, he spoke repeatedly that he was a member of Panzerkorps Großdeutschland obviously. His lapels are decorated with the “deathheads”, and that period were associated with of course the SS and the officer’s hats, and the Totenkopf Divisions of the Waffen SS. I didn’t know that the Wehrmacht and the SS shared any badging or insigniass? Can anyone shed light on this? Thanks in advance!
The deaths heads emblems have a long association with the Prussian calvary going back I believe to the 19th and 18th centuries. The Panzerwaffe adopted this symbol for themselves from their very beginning in the 1930's. Hence the Army panzer formations were using this symbol well before any SS panzer formations even existed.
Very nice pieces, im always asking myself how and wear all these pieces come from. Its 80+ years old. And after the war there big shortage of everthing. So many parts of war pieces have been destroyed or useud and modified for daily living.
So can someone tell me what to do to make sure that my SA buckle is acctually from the general major and Brigadeführer Gustsv Krugenberg? I own that because my great Grandfather, his brother and their father had connections and friendship after the war with Gustav... That makes me 98-99% sure that the buckle is from Gustsv Krugenberg... Does anyone know where to find pictures of him in SA uniform from 1932-33? I know its original, but does anybody know how to authendicate it?
I just thought the guys who collected nazi memorabilia were just a bit strange, I never thought of them as investments that go up in price and then you can sell them later.
I'm in Australia, and our laws on Swastika's and sales of third reich items are so strict and sales are illegal now. So Australian law is more strict than Germany. The Australian government has destroyed the market for shops & legitimate collectors of these items
Panzer uniform is one of the most out standing things i have ever seen ..... simply amazing . thank you for showing .
Wow another excellent presentation, that panzer wrap is something, such provenance you hardly ever see, thank you for sharing, Alex, cheers.
Glad you enjoyed it
Love looking at these treasures. Helmut is obviously an expert as well as a successful businessman.
Thank you Herr. Weitze
Awesome presentation. Always cool to see Mr. Weitze. The panzer uniform is beyond exceptional.
Couldn't agree more!

Fantastic episode thanks and I absolutely love your Pittsburgh STEELERS hoodie
Thanks for the interview! These are unique items!👍👍👍 I have a French infantry saber, which has a decorated blade from an officer's saber.
Incredible Items! Thanx Alex.
My pleasure!
If that Panzer tanker survived 50 missions, I can't imagine how much damage and how many casualties that soldier caused in all those battles.
The chaplain's cap didn't contained a swastika, how come?

The market would be for US. collectors, still a stigma for death head memorabilia in Europe, especially in the east.
Bougth a photo album from them. 10/10 experience. they where very nice and would recommend

Aus welchem Material besteht es?
You should do a video on how to spot fakes

I'm Sorry about your Bull Shit Laws!!
I would imagine that the law just made collecting of third reich items much more expensive and exclusive with everything going under the table.
We all saw in Wittmann’s channel what your customs officer made with SS greatcoat. Shame!
@@faridismayil414 That was indeed horrible to watch. Woke bs is one of the biggest cultural problems of our time.
That’s awful!
Cool 👍
