Hello all,

Any reason to believe these tabs are not authentic?

Opinions welcome.

Hello William
Your party tabs all look fine except for the orts. Please not that I am by no means an expert I am just providing observations. I am not familiar with that pay group. It looks like it was reassembled or something. The highest pay group for orts level was Ober Abschnittsieiter. This would consist of one oak leaf and one oak leaf bar situated below the oak leaf. I have derived my information from Jeff Clark's book entitled Uniforms of the NSDAP. Hope this helps. Your kreis level tabs look nice though....Nice to see the RZM tags....Good Luck

The second tabs down in post 2 (Kreis with single oakleaf) are reproductions IMO...

First set of tabs is questionable as well, IMO it has correct pips but left side tab has a "chicken neck" national eagle and it looks like both eagles have under wings bumps, need better pictures.
