Original WWII German .32 Caliber Preßstoff Pistol Holster with G.I. Applied Panzer Skulls & Eagle Insignia 19th Century and is of the YAKIZUMEOriginal Item. One of a Kind. This is a really gorgeous example of a general . 32 Caliber pistol holster made from Prestoff which has been decorated, likely by an American G. I., with two Panzer skulls, two rank pips, and a cap Eagle. Mostly these holsters are associated with the Mauser 1910, Mauser 1934 Series of Pistols, however, they can accommodate a wide range of . 32 caliber pistols, the number of different types would be too exhaustive to list!
