ehrentitle Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Thanks Kevin , yes same here especially the cufftitle , one guy on the British Ebay wants £40 for it ! Is there another arm patch ? Yes, They are illustrated as fantasy items in on of my reference books. However they have been around so long that they have become collectable in their own right even thought they are known not to have existed in the DDR time.
