18th SS Volunteer Panzergrenadier Division Horst Wessel Plaque 25mm is a diorama plaque with the badge of the unit given in the name. It is not a model and not a figure, but an accessory for marking a base or a display case.
Responsibility details are not available.
This is a diorama accessory, not a kit. The plaque carries the badge of the formation given in the name and serves to give a finished scene a clear historical placing. It is fitted to the front of a base, to a wooden plinth or to a shelf in a display case. The designation 25 mm is part of the name; the exact execution, the material and the number of pieces are stated on the box.
The formation given in the name came about in 1944 as a motorized infantry division of the Waffen-SS and carried the honor title Horst Wessel. Its core was made up of units derived from the 1st SS Infantry Brigade, filled up largely from the German-speaking population of what was then Hungary. It was committed in action in the eastern theater, in the area of Hungary, Slovakia and Silesia, where the end of the war found it in 1945. The historical background will serve as support for documenting a diorama scene.
The surface the plaque is to go on should be flat and free of grease, so that the accessory comes down on its whole face. The relief stands out most when a darker shade is sunk into the hollows and the raised edges are carefully polished with a lighter tone. On dark varnish or on stained wood the badge stays markedly more legible than on a light ground.
