I live in the the Canadian Province of "Neu Braunschweig" (New Brunswick), and I collect Totenkopf related items, so naturally I collect to the Duchy of Braunschweig.

For a Braunschweig collector, the ultimate tunic to have is Mannschaften (Other Ranks) black Polrock from Braunschweigisches Infanterie-Regt. Nr.92. And the ultimate Braunschweig cloth headgear in my opinion, is a black IR92 NCO Schirmmütze. And here they are.

Both very welcome additions to my Totenkopf displays. Enjoy.

Super good additions to your collection Tony! These will be hard to upgrade or ... let's say at least very hard to find!
