While more famously associated with the SS and German armored units after WWII, in WWI totenkopf-marked weapons were associated with flamethrower units and "Stormtrooper" trench raiding formations. Fixed sights, with a "lazy S/Totenkopf" mark over "1917" on the chamber. Included with the pistol are two magazines, a 1915-dated brown leather flap holster (fair as repaired), and a takedown tool. Provenance: The Art Buchanan Collection
