Gau Leader Armband

[RonR]

Have a hard time understanding the 38 different Political Leaders Armbands and have accumulated a variety of these very beautiful items of honor through the years.

Could use a lot of help if I mis-identify them as they are posted.

Believe this to be for Gaueinerhaupstelle............

What do you think?

Yes - Leiter einer Gauhauptstelle. All embroidered swastika version instead of earlier tape and cord. Nice to have price tag still attached.

I always get a laugh out of the "This way up" stamp inside.

Here's my version for a lowly Orts Hauptstellenleiter.

Should have mentioned that the biggest confusion comes from the fact that armbands show operational responsibility and collar tabs show rank, so one armband could often go with several collar tabs, and vice versa.
