Uniforms of the SS, Collected Edition (6 Volumes)

The first section (some 75 pages long) covers the development over the uniforms of the Allgemeine-SS in photos and illustrations, from the earliest days until the end. Much of the material focuses on cloth insignia (which is covered in many rather detailed illustrations), but all aspects of the uniforms (trousers, tunics, headgear, belt buckles, edged weapons, overcoats etc) are covered, at least briefly. The last six pages cover the flags and standards of the Allgemeine-SS. The second section (some 80 pages long) is written by Hugh Page Taylor and covers the history and organisation of the Germanische-SS (SS organisations raised outside of Germany) as well as the uniforms worn by their members. It begins with an introduction on the general history of the Germanische-SS before covering each country that had such a formation: the Netherlands, Belgium (Flemings), Norway and Denmark. Following this the Germanische Sturmbanne and the Germanic Proficiency Runes are covered. The third section (some 100 pages long) is co-written by Mollo and Hugh Page Taylor and covers the history and organisation of the SS-Verfügungstruppe until it became the Waffen-SS. The background and the general history of the SS-VT is covered before moving on to the history of the main units and schools. Following this background the uniforms are covered in the same detail as those in the first section......
