THIRD REICH SECURITY POLICE TRUNCHEON

Collapsible spring-loaded steel truncheon with lanyard ring, 6.75 in. closed, 16 in. extended, utilized by 'Sicherheitspolizei' ('Security Police') throughout World War II. Similar examples were used to forcefully 'de-politicize' the Polish people after the invasion of Poland and to help implement the Final Solution in the Nazi-controlled territories. Very good condition.
