NSDAP Organisation RLB Door Plate Aluminum

[Avitas]

Hello again,

Here is another little piece I acquired. It is a RLB Door Plate and it is my first one so I just wanted to get some opinions on it. It seems ok compared to others I have seen online, but an expert opinion would be great. It is from a district in Westphalia, any other info is appreciated. Here are a couple pics.

Cheers,

Pat

Are these heavily reproduced? I do like the details of this piece, but I do not have the expertise to tell you if it is legitimate or not. Perhaps someone else could weigh in on this?
