LSSAH Shooting Award in Bronze to Hermann Müller-John # 3354
Original LSSAH material is just very scarce and I just never see it. Here is an original bronze shooting plaque to Hermann Müller-John who was the head of the band for the Leisbstandarte SS Adolf Hitler that consisted of about about 100 members. The piece measures about 8 inches overall with the dedicated plaque measuring just over 6 inches and hand engraved to Muller and dated for 1940. There is quite a bit of information on the man on the web and I actually called for his file but with the government shutdown in place with no end in sight I have no idea how long that might take.
Mueller in the title Leibstandarten-Obermusikmeister was traveling via bus in 1939 when he and his group took fire and several were killed. Under his command his men went in search from home to home and when it was all over 50 Poles were dead. The information on this can be found on the web and the reason I reached for his file. A couple links are here:

Quite a bit out there on him and wish I was able to get the file but it will be available at some point and happy to work that out with any buyer. A nice piece and just very rare to see the plaque, let alone one that is dedicated.
