ARTIFACT: This is an exceedingly rare circa 1930 Greek Air Force officer's leather sword belt with hangers. It has absolutely fabulous details with a variant oval "Greek pilot badge" for the main buckle, as well as the smaller buckles and hangers. This belt was originally owned by Greek Air Force pilot Captain A.W. Paleodswopoulis (the last picture above is reportedly one of him in full dress uniform, wearing this belt). Born in 1902, Paleodswopoulis flew with the Hellenic Air Force before and after it became its own entity, separate from the Greek Army and Navy. He passed away in 1965. We are selling some other items separately that belonged to the Captain: please see the links at the bottom of this page for more information.

VINTAGE: Circa 1930.

SIZE: Approximately 39" in length (not including 2-1/2" width buckle) and 2" in width; hangers are 26" and 11" in length.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Leather, gilt brass.

ATTACHMENT: Buckles, clip hangers.

MARKINGS: None.

ITEM NOTES: This is from a foreign militaria collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. CON-DMM-25-12 L/SABGEX8/13

CONDITION: 7+ (Very Fine+): The belt has some small spots of light to medium wear.

GUARANTEE: As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
