A very scarce surviving SS ‘Wolchow’ stick in excellent solid condition and approx 36 inches in length. These hand-carved sticks get their name after the Wolchow region of Russia, where heavy fighting was experienced by the German forces, especially the SS divisions. Throughout the eastern campaign these sticks were carved by the German supporters and were given as tokens of friendship to the German soldiers. This particular stick is of the SS style normally attributed to the SS-Viking Regiment with the horse head, typical of ancient Viking ships design. Winding around the stick is a snake with its tongue out. The top section has carved the words ‘Djemjansk 1941-42 43 Rusland’. The circle, where the runes are to be found, has been de-nazified, sadly this was quite a common occurrence with the SS sticks. In Brian L. Davis’ book, German Army Uniforms (p174), there is a picture of an officer who carries a 'wolchow' stick. The picture caption states that the 'Wolchowstuck' is carved to commemorate the particular unit or campaign that the officer would have been involved in. These sticks seldom show up today and they are always considered a premium trophy of the intense fighting that raged on the eastern front. A very scarce and desirable piece of SS history.

A scarce Meissen plate within its original presentation case, approx 15cm diameter 'biscuit' porcelain in beautiful unmarked condition, plate celebrates Ernst Thalmann 1886 to 1944 and his life and work for socialism and peace. The front face has Thalmann's portrait with the words 'The dead never again admonish fascism' with the rear words stating 'His life and work served the cause of socialism and peace'. Ernst Thalmann was the leader of the Communist party in Germany during the Weimar Republic, arrested by the Gestapo in 1933 and held in solitary confinement for eleven years before being shot in 1944 on Hitlers orders at Buchenwald. Meissen is extremely collectable and attracts a lot of interest in general. A scarce early postwar Meissen patriotic plate.

A very interesting, possibly contemporary or a POW made item, commemorating the battle of Narvik. Plaque is beaten sheet copper in a style very similar to WW1 trench art, approx 24x24cm in size, has the 'NARVIK' legend with the battle shield design German eagle above. The copper work is then backed on to a wooden plaque, again very German in execution, with a felt cover to the base. It does not appear to have ever had any fittings or hangers into the back. My personal thoughts are this is a POW or veteran piece, it is a very nice item and certainly of interest to a Kriegsmarine, Narvik or battle shield collector. Something a little different.
