€ 179,00
An original, highly detailed wartime product catalog issued by the renowned weapons manufacturer F.W. Höller of Solingen. Spanning a total of 30 pages including its factory foreword and illustrated front and back covers, this rare volume showcases the firm’s extensive range of ceremonial and combat edged weapons. The pages feature crisp, detailed blue-ink illustrations highlighting an array of daggers, swords, sabers, dress bayonets (Extra-Seitengewehr), and specialized forestry hangers (Hirschfänger). It provides an exhaustive overview of models and custom blade engraving motifs tailored for various branches and political organizations, including the Heer, Luftwaffe, Kriegsmarine, Hitler Youth (HJ), Reichsarbeitsdienst (RAD), civil service officials (Beamten), Polizei, and the NSKK. Featured designs include standard officer pattern sabers (Offizier-Einheits-Säbel), elaborate lion head and panther head hilts, traditional shooter (Schützen) variants, and specialized firefighter (Feuerwehr) axes. The catalog shows some honest handling wear, soft edges, and expected minor aging to the outer covers, but remains complete and securely bound with all internal plates fully intact.
