Original WWII South African SANP 'Gryshemde' uniform

The uniform is in good condition and belonged to the SANP 'Gryshemde' or also known as the South African Gentile National Socialist Movement.The German NSDAP/AO arrived in South Africa in 1932 and as a result a number of groups sympathetic to Nazism emerged.The most notable of these was the South African Gentile National Socialist Movement (also known as the South African Christian National Socialist Movement), formed by Louis Weichardt the following year.The SANP was originally founded in 1933 by Louis Theodor Weichardt.Louis Weichardt was born in Paarl of German extraction.In Cape Town, on 26 October 1933, he founded South Africa's Nazi party equivalent – The South African Christian National Socialist Movement (SANP) with a paramilitary section (modelled on Nazi Germany's brown-shirted Sturmabteilung) called the 'Gryshemde' (Grey-shirts).The uniform has a small size and it has brass belt hooks on the bottom and German made buttons.Presumably are the buttons replaced but definitely original.Only a hand full on these rare collaboration uniforms are known!Article number: 13803
