Item History & Price

Information:
Reference Number: Avaluer:142769Country/Region of Manufacture: Germany
Original Description:
EAST GERMAN POLICE VOPO AND TRAPO SHAKOS.  People's Police and Transport Police.  These shakos are typical of the East Germans.  Style is almost identical to Reich items, yet subtly different.  Worn by those who were responsible to control all foot and vehicle traffic within East German borders as well as surrounding West Berlin, complete with orders to shoot any transgressors.  COMPLETE WITH LINERS.  SIZE 55/56.  EXTREMELY RARE as most were thro...wn away or destroyed by the time of reunification.  Condition is overall quite good.   Leather intact.  Straps intact, but stiff.  Selling together - NOT separately  - Had both for several years along with a lot of other early East German pieces including super rare Model 54 helmet (the "Kessler Bomb" rejected by the NVA but used by the police) and Model 56 (decaled) which I will list in future.  Shakos will be shipped USPS First Class Package.  I'm putting these up for sale simply to move my collection in new directions after years of collecting hard to find East German pieces, mainly from '49 to '75, before the uniforms, badges, etc. started being made cheaply as the DDR went faster and faster toward collapse.  Any questions, please contact me.  I have over 3000 transactions and 100% rating with ebay. BTW, if you think my starting price is high, there's one listed on German eBay, painted white with the later hammer and caliper police star, starting out at 800 EU!  These shakos are not simply a cold war memory but a sound investment...also, I've had a couple of offers, via msg, to sell at a lesser price...sorry, but I know the value of these shakos and cannot drop the price below $800.  Thanks for looking and the offers!
