circa 1938. Large multi-piece jingling johnny (Schellenbaum), complete with all parts. At the top the Prussian eagle, standing on a cigar with lightning bolts. Holding in its beak the silver cord with the Schellenbaum cloth, which hangs from a crossbar. The cloth made of green silk, on the front side the national eagle of the Police in the new pattern from 1936 hand-embroidered in metal thread, surrounded by silver fringe, with 4 hanging tassels on the sides. Below it the large star, in the center engraved on both sides with the Prussian national eagle with swastika on its breast and the motto “Gott mit uns” (God with us). Below that the large crescent (center arm) with 14 attached bells and stars, the crescent engraved on the front with the designation: “POLIZEIPRÄSIDIUM ALTONA-WANDSBEK”. Engraved on the reverse “ÜBERREICHT VOM POLIZEI PRÄSIDENTEN PAUL KINKLER”. Engraver: “C.W. MORITZ” and “BERLIN.W. 1934”. The crescent ending at both ends in an eagle head, with the large streamers attached, left in the Prussian colors black/white, right in the colors of Hamburg red/white. Below that the large bell with applied oak leaf wreath, with 16 attached bells and stars. Complete with the original wooden staff. Total height 2.25 m. The Schellenbaum shows slight signs of use and age due to use and its eventful history, the Schellenbaum cloth has lost a few silver fringes. In good overall condition. The Schellenbaum is completely disassemblable and can therefore be transported without difficulty.
Extremely rare, in over 30 years this is only the 3rd original and complete Schellenbaum that we have been able to offer.
We have manufactured a solid base with holding sleeve for this piece, so that the Schellenbaum can be securely displayed.
The Schellenbaum was acquired in the years 1933/34 for the Music Corps of the Schutzpolizei Altona-Wandsbek, which at that time both still belonged to the Free State of Prussia. Hence also the Prussian eagle on the star. With the Greater Hamburg Act of 1938, Altona and Wandsbek were incorporated into Hamburg and today still form the largest districts of the Hanseatic city. Attached as a copy is a fine photograph showing the Schellenbaum on Police Day on 19.11.1934 in Hamburg-Wandsbek, at that time still with the old Schellenbaum cloth.
