Here's a discussion of this armband. It's origin is Lithuanian and there are many fakes. I'm not sure if these were produced under the RZM but chances are it's a copy.

well
Well that was a first for me for sure.
I doubt that something for wear in the Eastern countries would have had a RZM marking.
I just looked at a book concerning the RZM markings.
It States the RZM did not issue permits to manufactures outside of Germany I.in occupied territories ,such as Poland and the Netherlands .Part of the RZMs mandate was to provide jobs for Germans ,not conquered peoples.
The insignia of a Nazi like organization in occupied or puppet territories was not RZM controlled or marked.
hope that helps.Regards PeteComment

Yes it did after a fashion. I am quite a bit older than most of you, so I remember some things which are not around anymore (at least I don't think so, because I haven't seen or heard of them in many years). An armband like this (and several others) were sold by an outfit called Delta International (don't know if they also made them though) out of the mid-west area of the U.S.. They also had SS collar tabs, cased Knight's Crosses and many other things.......some were very good looking too; however the armbands were printed for the most part with just a cheap fake paper tag on the back. Can't be sure, but I sort of think this might be one of them; however, maybe another of the older guys with a good memory may be able to say. It is possible that Delta changed it's name to WW2 Limited or something like that later............I don't think it exists now either.Originally posted by ironfist View Post

These were made by Delta in the early 70's and possibly others since as repros.Comment
