Overall length is 53 1/2 inches (135 cm).  The large heavy polished 9″ tall aluminum mace has a band of interlocking swastikas around the circumference.  This is attached to a tapered black painted oak staff.  The long black and white silk wound cord and tassels are attached to the staff thru a special aluminum oak leaf wreath edged hole at the top of the staff and two rings attached to the makers band at the bottom of the staff.  The band is stamped “RZM 1162/39 SS”  The 10″ tip is polished cast aluminum with 4 machine-routed openings housing a green celluloid window.  The tip unscrews revealing a lightbulb that goes on and off by throwing a thumb controlled switch on the mace.  The mace head unscrews revealing an aluminum tube that holds a number of batteries.  Circuit wires go down the center of the staff.
