S.S. 25 Year Long Service Cross in gold with embroidered ribbon

£39.95

S.S. 25 Year Long Service Cross in gold with embroidered ribbon.

This award was instituted on 21st October 1938 and bestowed after 25 years loyal service in the S.S. Finished in matt and burnished gold plate the cross has the distinctive tear-drop suspension loop and the correct wide cornflower blue ribbon which is hand embroidered with gold wire S.S. runes. Note: Even thought the S.S. did not exist for 25 years it was still possible to receive this award as war service and service during the 'time of struggle' counted as double.

The German WWII Wehmacht military and Third Reich civil decorations and medals offered by the Regalia Specialist are full size awards made to the most exacting standards whilst still providing excellent value for money. Where possible original Third Reich period tools and dies obtained from Germany in the 1980's are used and traditional European manufacturing techniques are employed. We believe that that small touches like a like the special S.S. medal suspension loops will enhance the enjoyment of these items and these litte extras are offered wherever possible.
