PLEASE HELP with COLLAR TABS

[DKNYC71]

Dear Forum Members,

I am not versed in political insignia, and would very much appreciate your help and valued opinion with the folllowing two collar tabs. One is the GAULEITER and the other is what appears like a HItlerjugendfuhrer tab (it appears that it was glued into an album or some display board at one time) Looking at photos of Arthur Axmann and Baldur Von Chirach, it does NOT appear that they are wearing a similar tab, so if it is not a Hitlerjugendfuhrer, I am not sure what ir who this would be for. Thank you very much in advance for your feedback and opinion(s)!

Dave.

Axman's collar tabs from the Delich collection can be seen here for comparison to the tab posted. Not sure what the tab is but speculate it is not from the Reichsjugendfuhrer.

Yes, thanks, those look very nice, as I had mentioned, this tab does not appear the same as worn by any of the two Hitlejugendfuhrers. Therefore it would be interesting to know, what organization it bleongs to, or if it is even REAL. As stated above, I would appreciate all opinions on these tabs.

Cheers,
Dave.

A tab with very similar features was discussed in this thread on the H.J. forum some time ago.

Mark Costa went into great detail on that thread about his research that these are reproduction Reichsjugendfuhrer tabs.

Thank you very much for this most informative thread. I suspected that the 'Reichsjugenfuhrer' tab might be FAKE, which is why I posted it for opinion, also since I have very little knowledge with political items, also I thought it was suspect since it looked nothing like the ones which were worn by Axmann or Chirach. This will be going back to the individual who has offered it to me. In regard to the Guleiter tab, it looks a bit more promissing me, but there again, I have no experience with these, and would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks in advance!

Dave.

The Gauleiter tab is good, though not the best condition. This example being the most common variant, mostly cellon, with few bullion highlights.
