Looks better with some light thrown on the subject, and personally I would not clean it apart from

a light brush up with an old tooth brush.

Thanks. Your PC skills are to be admired. Once I figure out this site then I will be able to post better pics.

Thanks. I will just give it a good dusting with a soft brush. I can see how this could be addictive.

MM 56- Robert Hauschild

Working on my second purchase already. This information is invaluable. After being on other sites I really applaud the members of this site for honesty and integrity. It is nice to see collectors looking out for each other. I am sure I will be posting new pics soon. Here is a bad pick of my first purchase.

I finally found out who the maker is. #56 It is a Robert Hauschild. Thanks to the people at Wermacht Awards. They have a great list of Makers with pictures.

Amazing. Just walked away from one of these. Thank God. The date is what gave me a clue. I'm a novice and I saw this. Buyer Beware.

Nice. Just picked up my first one. Heer Artillery. Looks great on display.

Stay away. Stay away from that website. Everything looks seriously unquestionable.

Pass Pass Pass. The eagle and skull are dead give aways. The twins to this hat pop up everywhere. Look for pics on websites on originals and how they look now. This will open your eyes and you can see the difference.

Unbelievable. Love GD militaria.

Looks good to me as well. Good work.

Sweet.

Nice work. Any opinion on how the insignia should be sewn to the piece? Ran across one that was in decent shape. The sewing on the insignia was horrible. Wasn't too sure so I left the piece alone. I can still purchase however. I want to wait till I have more info.

Took these to show and the response was amazing. Nice to own somthing this cool. Thanks everyone for your help.

Good advise is to leave the cross as it is. I know it is very tempting to clean the cross and make it shine. I thought on it for awhile on my first cross. Now I am just looking for another shinier example. Gives me another excuse to buy more.

Looks like a good time. I wonder what happened to many of these proud warriors.

Very pretty piece. I feel my addiction getting worse.

Looks worn enough and rough enough to be original. Nice find.

All I can say is awesome.

Somthing new all the time. Must be fun finding these. Keep up the hunting.

Very good info. Nice pics as well.

Just started my collection a little while ago. This info. will seriously help. Thanks.

Talk about ugly. People will reproduce anything.

Nice badge.

Skinheads wrote this. You may be able to take it to a professional who could possibly restore it. I have seen these before and I have seen these repaired as well. It is a shame this happened to such an awesome flag. You can always display it on the unmarked side. Good Luck.

Love the album.
