Buckle is constructed of fire gilded aluminum, 54mm x 50mm, with first pattern eagle in silvered aluminum, plain reverse, unmarked; in slightly worn condition, of excellent quality manufacture, in extremely fine condition. Footnote: this Luftwaffe General’s Brocade Belt & Buckle belonged to Walter von Hippel (27 May 1897 – 29 November 1972), who was a highly decorated Generalleutnant in the Luftwaffe during World War II and who commanded several Flak Divisions. He was also a recipient of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross 1939 and Pour le Mérite, among many decorations he received during WWI and WWII. Walter von Hippel was captured in May 1945 by British troops and was held until May 1948. Belt also comes with signed photo of him, and Angolia’s hand written note. (Illustrated on pages 150, 634 of Angolia’s book).

Angolia, who start collecting buckles, belts and brocades from 1944 until around 1990; most of the buckles were obtained from the American and German veterans; most of these buckles present a core of Angolia’s book “Belt Buckles & Brocades of the Third Reich”, published in 2001.
