Greenwood and Ball Connoisseur Figures - An Appendix

 As an appendix to a past blog article written in 2006, which has received recent revived interest; https://arnhemjim.blogspot.com/2019/06/greenwood-ball-connoisseur-military.html I’m undertaking this project in an attempt to recover and reconstruct a more complete history of the Firm of Greenwood and Ball, and a complete list of their products.

 The following is an image of their complete staff.

Original workers at Spring Village, Horsehay, about 1949-50. Left to right:- Mr. Greenwood (seated), Eleanor Clay (standing behind), Brenda Yarnald, Mrs. Ball (Kathleen's mother), Kathleen Ball, Cynthia Booth (standing) and seated, an American gentleman called Herbert Jackson with Mr. Greenwood's Red Setter dog called Flare.


 

Among other listings/catalogues, in 1973 a GREENWOOD AND BALL Catalogue was issued which listed the following series and individual figures. What is not known, for each unit, corps, regiment, etc. how many different uniforms and poses were offered, and were the figures individually numbered? At that time prices started at $40.00 USD. Currently a single cursory page listing (#11) is being offered on e-Bay for GBP 19.99 ($26.40 USD). Apologies, this is the best available image.



Another later listing is provided in the following image.


The following is an initial, and will be a continuing attempt to research and identify a comprehensive list of figures produced. Although John Greenwood worked in other scales, this list is of 32nd scale (i.e. 54mm or 2 1/4 in.). From 1938 to1966 He, Ms. Kathleen Ball, and their staff,  produced 500 different figures in that scale. The total quantity of figures produced is unknown to the author. Additional figures which have been added below are from those found from other sources, or which the author has physically seen. Reader additions and corrections are both solicited and sincerely appreciated.

An Original Unissued German WWII Luftwaffe Fallschirmjäger Smock

As a means of introduction, the firm International Military Antiques (IMA), and its founder in 1981, Christian Cranmer, gained significant fame with the protracted negotiation and final purchase of the entire contents of the state arsenal of the nation of Nepal, in the capitol, Katmandu. The single most important element being a very large quantity of .577/.450 cal. Mk II Martini-Henry Pattern 1877 rolling-block breach loading rifles, manufactured at the Birmingham Arsenal dated 1878. They had been stored in the same place, untouched for 100 years. These were from the exact production lot which had been in standard issue to the men of B Company, 2nd Battalion, 24th Regiment of Foot (South Wales Borderers) wo fought the Battle of Rorke’s Drift against the Zulus on 22-23 January 1879. Needless to say I purchased one of the premium completely refurbished rifles when they first became available.

 In this author’s personal opinion, while the company has regularly offered some historically significant pieces, there have also consistently been some dubious items, clearly misidentified/misdated, and at highly inflated prices.When questioned they have tended to get rather defensive, and have not rectified the issue or withdrawn the item.

 However, on other occasions they have acquired some real gems. Fortunately I collect WWII British Airborne Forces militaria, and am fortunately not even tempted, but certainly have a full appreciation of the item which they are currently offering for sale. The only reason I’m presenting the item is in order that those collectors who might be tempted, or already have one within their collection, can use this example as collaboration, full authentication, and valuation. This author has no direct or indirect interest in the item.

 The item is a circa 1944 original German WWII Luftwaffe Fallschirmjäger Smock in Tan and Water camouflage, in excellent, unissued, condition. It is currently at offer for $8,995.00. Price recently reduced to $7,995.00. For those collectors who are in the specific field, this may not be an exorbitant price. However, that large a reduction in price, immediately raises my antennae, in that someone may have seen something that brings authenticity under question. Or it just may be the current market.  Personally have a rare unissued original British dummy parachutist device (Device, Camouflage, No.15), fortunately a very generous gift, but within the same comparable price range. One of the first questions that comes to mind is where was the smock found.

 The following is IMA’s Item Description:

“ Original Item: Only One Available. This is an incredibly rare circa 1944 WWII German Luftwaffe Paratrooper Smock in “Tan and Water” camouflage pattern. The Smock is in excellent, unissued, condition, and one of the fi nest specimens we have ever seen! All of the original blue glass buttons are present. The “Zipp” brand zippers, which were purpose built for this style of smock, and all in excellent working order. Each zipper has a crosshatch black leather pull tab. The snaps are all intact and marked "PRYM". The reverse has the pistol pocket with small black bakelite buttons. The snaps at the cuffs are identical to those at the hem for the leg closure. All snaps function as intended. The breast eagle is machine embroidered and is hand stitched onto the smock with purple/blue thread. It should be noted that this hand-application is most likely period, as there is no evidence that an eagle was previously machine-applied. The interior is unlined and uses a mix of green and blue Herringbone Twill cloth for pocket reinforcements, etc. The original size adjustment draw string is in place and secured underneath with a strip of purple/blue cloth. Note that on several sections of material inside the body panels of the Smock that “16” is written in grease pencil. These are cutter markings from when the Smock was made in the factory! Generally these are worn off with even the lightest of wear! No other markings are to be found in the Smock, which is not uncommon for a late war garment. Overall, an incredible late war Fallschirmjäger smock offered in truly excellent condition. 

Approximate Measurements: Collar to Shoulder: 10” Shoulder to Sleeve: 23.5” Shoulder to Shoulder: 20.5” Chest Width: 20” Waist Width: 20” Front Length: 40”.

The Fallschirmjäger were the paratrooper branch of the German Luftwaffe before and during World War II. They were the first German paratroopers to be committed in large-scale airborne operations and came to be known as the "green devils" by the Allied forces they fought against. The Fallschirmjäger were very effective when used in commando style raids. The Fallschirmjäger were famous for their willingness to give every effort unwaveringly even in the grimmest of situations. The Fallschirmjäger were seldom used as parachutists. Instead, they were prized for their combat abilities and frequently acted in a "fire brigade" role as roving elite infantrymen. Throughout World War II the Fallschirmjäger commander was Kurt Student."

 It is with full acknowledgment and gratitude to IMA that the following comprehensive set of imagery is presented solely for reference/comparative purposes.

Arnhem Jim's Blog Posts Grouped by Categories 2011 - 2021

 In an attempt to more easily facilitate a reader’s search and recovery of specific information on a given subject from Arnhem Jim’s blog page, the author thought that a single post combining all posts (excluding administrative posts) by categories would aid in the reader’s ability to exercise a more efficient recovery process. Personally, I have always found it very frustrating to remember that I knew generally where I had specifically found a bit of information, but without an index or table of contents of the document (or set of documents) could look forward to a lengthy, time consuming search, and table of contents and indices are never comprehensive.

The blog page does provide a search window, for use of interrogation by key words/terms, but the search retrieval results usually will show only the first post containing the relevant search terms. With the following grouping of post by categories, hopefully multiple relevant posts are identified. In order to ensure that no post of 11 years was omitted was a bit of a bookkeeping and proofreading task, but to the best of my ability all posts are included. Hopefully the will prove beneficial.
