The Uniform of a German Army Major General (Item RECUNI 1-1)

DESCRIPTION: Yes, this is newly made but it might as well be real! It was made by the son of a German army supplier of uniforms for the Wehrmacht (all branches) -- every stitch and thread from top to bottom is done exactly as the originals were manufactured. The uniform was probably constructed from bolts of cloth that were left over after the war in the shop of his father. We put the ultra violet light (black light) to the various parts of the outfit and all that lit up was the bouillon on the shoulder boards. So, what we have here is a uniform that certain dealers here and in Europe would sell as real (unfortunately!). They would probably distress it a bit and ‘surprise’ they have a genuine Major General’s outfit. The handwork on this uniform is incredible; one would think that the Whermacht clothing regulation inspector was soon to knock on the door -- it is that perfect! The tunic also has an 8 ribbon medal bar with the following medals represented:

1. Iron Cross WWI with 1939 spange
2. Russian Front medal
3. Iron Cross WWI with Royal citation
4.WWI participation medal with swords and wound badge
5& 6 Long service awards for the army
7.Austrian Anschluss medal
8.1936 Olympic participation medal

The trousers are the riding breeches style and there is even a set of braces (suspenders) that look to be period. Inside the tunic is the traditional slot for the hanger of the dress dagger. The collar tabs and shoulder boards are wonderfully created, may even be ‘real’. The eagle is fine both on the hat and tunic but had to be purchased from Asian sources since they cannot be made in the ‘New’ Germany.  Inside the tunic is a pocket and here is found a tag that would identify the general who owned the uniform. The tag is labeled Holtors, this in the era was the ultimate maker for the finest uniforms made for Wehrmacht and political figures of high rank. Hitler, Goring, Himmler, Heydrich and practically the whole army, navy, and Air force officials were Holters uniforms. He was the most prestigious of all the garment makers in the Third Reich. No other could easily compare. The cap is a thing of beauty as well with that jaunty look that only the German headgear had. The label inside is from G.A. Hoffmann another famous maker whose headgear was well known to be perfection personified! Their firm was in Berlin. So, collectors, if you don’t think you want to or are unable to lay out over $8,000.00 for an original general’s outfit, this is at least a good second choice. Just imagine it on a mannequin in your collection room. Its brilliance is phenomenal and the price affordable. But, do remember this is as close as it gets to the real McCoy and probably it is even better made than some of the originals. We can’t say enough in praise for this magnificent ensemble.

PRICE: $2,900.00   Ultra Reasonable! SOLD

(Complete) Uniform of a German Air Force General (Item RECUNI 1-2)


DESCRIPTION: Here is a complete beautiful tunic, trousers, and cap that would be the dress uniform of a Generalleutnant in the Luftwaffe. It’s the equivalent of an American major general and the English air vice-marshal. Just like the army general’s uniform seen above, this uniform is an exquisite example of the greatest tailoring imaginable today. If it were a modern suit bought today of the identical quality it would be well over $1,500 or better. It is in a size large and the tailoring is the best in the world. The description of this uniform is much the same as the German Army one above and the fact that “certain dealers” do buy these and sell them as authentic is all too true. The uniform is by Herr Janke, a name in this militaria-field equivalent to the fame of the German Mercedes or even Rolls-Royce automobiles. However, Herr Janke deals only with a select group of preferred dealers and a private individual would have no chance to make an order with him and they cannot even make any contact with him through the internet or phone information. Why? Because these dealers have convinced him that they want to keep him quite private and exclusive to themselves! There is practically no way to be able to tell that one of Jake’s uniforms was made in recent times. They are that good and even better! The uniform we offer consists of the wonderful-looking tunic with collar patches and shoulder boards made by Janke as well. The only two pieces within the whole uniform that is not made by this fabric master is the bullion-weaved breast eagle and the cap eagle WHY? Because Germany today has a ludicrous law against the display or production of any item bearing a swastika. The eagles, however, are a perfect reproduction of originals in the very highest quality made in the Orient. A label sewn inside the tunic’s inner pocket is that of Wilhelm Holters, the company that supplied the uniforms for Hitler, Göring, Himmler, and most of the top leaders of the party and military. This label is left blank as to the owner of the uniform (“Virgin!”). The cap is a masterpiece as well and is also in a size large. Here is a rare chance to be able to purchase a genuine Janke general uniform here represented as a wonderful re-creation just as it truly is with no purpose of misrepresentation, circumvention, or circumlocution as might be confronted with when dealing with certain well-known militaria dealers who would be delighted to sell you one for $8,000 to $12, 000. A Janke uniform when ordered by one of those dealers would take about 5 to 6 months to be delivered and that tells you what extreme care is exercised in the very special tailoring. There are no medals or awards with this uniform, but there is an original WWII-era set of suspenders with it. This outfit, when actually worn, is prodigiously resplendent and when you wear it you will have a hard time holding back giving the order to the assembled Me-109 pilots before you and shout: "Jagdtruppe: fahren gegen England!"

PRICE: $1,850.00 SOLD
