Paul R Posted June 10, 2006 Posted June 10, 2006 Seven Months later...I do not know anything about SS insignia, yet based upon what I know of Luftwaffe tabs, materials, and effects of aging on cloth... it seems to be OK to me.Did you get it?Paul

I had already bought it when I posted, as the deal was almost too good to pass up. My instincts told me they were good, but I asked for second opinions as it's enough out of my area of expertise.
woody Posted June 17, 2006 Posted June 17, 2006 well you did good its certainly original with correct series label, just looks as if its been cut short, probably removed from a tuniccheersGary
Daniel Murphy Posted June 18, 2006 Posted June 18, 2006 I agree, they look good to me. It is a Allgemeine SS NCO board for the black uniform.Dan Murphy

Guest Rick Research Posted June 18, 2006 Posted June 18, 2006 Hmmm. You MIGHT want to ask them if they are cutting up an intact uniform and selling off the bits. The human species is capable of the darndest things!

The human species is capable of the darndest things! I rather doubt it, as collar tabs are apparently 1933-1934 vintage, and wouldn't have been on the same uniform. Might have been part of a lot from the same SS trooper, but there's no way of knowing. The seller was a police specialist that knew what stuff was, but was clueless when it came to valuations. Simple commonplace stuff hideously overpriced, and some wonderfully undervalued. Both of these sold (individually) for less than an Ostmedaille he had for sale. Far be it from me to educate him on the error of his ways.
Paul R Posted June 18, 2006 Posted June 18, 2006 Does this guy have any Luftwaffe or medical/veterinarian related items???
