Camo Luftwaffe Eagles, Originial???

[sabersandsuch]

Bought from different places. The large camo eagle appears to be for a jump smock, splinter pattern. I got this in a group of insignia a long while back from a local picker, didn't realize it was camo until a few weeks ago. The other I have no idea but bought out of an estate auction last night, everything was originial no doubt. Can anyone help on these?

Sorry the photos are not good.

the camo eagle looks like it lacks some inner feather features and a few other details found on originals

A friend an I compared this to an original he pulled form a home on a smock, detail matched pretty close. He thought it was good. The photos distort it a bit. ANyone else?

Thanks

Tony, there are alot of details missing on that camo backed eagle. Take another look at the one on the smock if you can, and if original, I am sure you will note different details on each wing.

We also have a very lengthy thread in the FJ section on smock eagles buried a few pages back. You will see different features from the one you posted, yet they are present on the originals.

Thanks willi, I will look back. Anything on the other? Original, what is it?

Thanks

The first one looks like a Pakistani hand-embroidered fake thing to me.

Anyone else on the first eagle? If this is fake it was the only thing in the whole estate auction fake.
