    SA armband on E-stand

    Hi, anybody know what this armband represents? i cant find any reference of it in any of my books, Peter Manzie is selling this piece, PLEASE NOTE - this question is purely for knowledge not judging its originality, cheers Sean
    My first thought was Reserve SA due to the white borders top and bottom..

    I would be interested to know what armband it actually is aswell. I have noticed that the price has gone down also.

        Certainly well made, but I don't have any period or recent reference with this pattern armband.

              Dav,
              The band is not orange in the sense of a true orange. It is kind of red-orange. I think a lot of the nazi period cloth tended to be more toward the red orange spectrum rather than deep red.

                  Well Dav, maybe your right and this is actually an orange "forien volinteir" armband.

                    I sent a scan to a German friend who is"in the know with NSDAP items" as it where, and hes stumped too, he thought Reserve SA also at first glance, Peter, does the person who bought it from you have any ideas? Sean
