This is beautiful example of an all original Walther PPK as issued to High Ranking Nazi Party Leaders. The pistol has the pre-war high polish blue finish with niter blue 60-degree safety lever. The pistol has a side magazine release, lanyard loop butt and magazine with brown plastic finger extension. This specific pistol serial number is listed on page 96 of the excellent book "The Walther Models PP and PPK" by James Rankin. The pistol is very early model of the second variation NSDAP Party Leader model with distinctive brown checkered, one piece grip embossed with the Nazi Eagle and Swastika insignia. The left side of the slide is marked with the Walther Banner followed by the two-line legend: "Waffenfabrik Walther, Zella-Mehlis (Thur)/Walther's Patent Cal 7.65 m/m" followed by "Mod PPK". The right side of the frame has the serial number, "896362" vertically stamped behind the trigger. The pre-war "Crown/N" proof mark is stamped on the right side of the slide below the ejection port and on the barrel chamber. The magazine has the high polish blue finish and is stamped with the Walther Banner on the left side above the floor plate. Also included in the group is a scarce brown cowhide Political Leader's PPK holster. The full-flap holster has a vertical closing strap with aluminum closure stud and extra magazine pouch on the holster body, that contains a spare dark phosphate/blued finish magazine. The holster flap is embossed with the NSDAP Eagle and Swastika insignia. The holster body is stamped "D.R.G.M." over a wreath and crossed rifle emblem and the trademark "Akah".
