A stunning and 100% original RAD buckle from the early days of the Reich Labor Service. This example is clearly maker marked “N&H 1938” , indicating it was produced by the firm Noelle & Hueck in Lüdenscheid in one of the very first production years.
The buckle remains in very attractive condition , with excellent details on the spade and swastika emblem. The front shows only light wear and retains a nice patina, while the reverse is well-preserved with clear markings and an intact catch and prongs.
Early RAD buckles from 1938 are highly sought after , especially with such a clear maker's stamp. A fantastic addition for any collector of RAD, early Third Reich, or political buckles.
