    Sure, no problem.

    The Eagle is hand stiched. In a rather crude manner. May or may not have been a period sewn. Still make for a good display piece.

    Not the best photo. I will post a close-up image tonight.

      Close-up photo of reverse. I can only find two areas where the thread appears on the reverse. More threads are seen to the front of the eagle.

      How do they do this? Sew on something and not see the threads on the reverse of the base cloth? I have encountered this before, but still find it interesting.

        I've bought some souvenirs from a Canadian Scottish Regiment veteran's estate.

          I can't find any stitches on the reverse here either.

                      Bob,

                      Wonderful Eagles! Kriegsmarine cut-off insignia is very uncommon. What a great score. Look forward to see what else you bought!

                      Cheers,
                      Howard

                        Here you go, Howard! A KM coastal artillery collar. Possibly from the same tunic as the above eagle.
