Poison Dwarf Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 A friend found this arm band(?) among his late father's possessions. We have no clue what it is or if it has value (we presume it does ). The semicircular "body" of the item is woven -- a bit like embroidery -- on a linen base. The colors are reversed on the opposite side. Can anyone enlighten us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 It's an Army sport shirt eagle - for the exercise kit. Quite common; 'collector value' perhaps US$20? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Sewn across the chest of a sleeveless sports t-shirt. Oddly enough, I don't think I've ever seen one of those with the insignia attached... JUST the loose insignia like this that were never sewn on, and photos of the "track suits" being worn. They also sewed cloth versions of the sports badges on the left thigh-- don't know why-- of their gym shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What don't you know about things German and military in nature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
