Unknown cuff band - wehrmacht ?

[pimpf]

Hello !


Looking for help with this cuff title. Who may provide information about this one ? Was it Wehrmacht or what ?

I know well Hasso von Manteufel - Wehrmach Panzer general. Who was Hans ?



Regards,
Alex

Hi Pimpf,
it was obvious from the RZM tag that it was S.A. on checking it is a S.A. honor title worn by group `Warthe standarte Posen`.

Iam afriad thets all the info i have (taken from cloth insignia of the S.A BY Angolia)

I have never seen that particular title either. What is the rarity of this SA item?

I did not know that the SA had cuff titles.

SA sleeveband

Yes, it is an SA sleeveband for Standarte 6, located in Posen, Group Warthe. There were many SA units with honor names (the most famous would be Horst Wessel for Standarte 5 Berlin)--generally they were named after SA martyrs.
SA sleevebands are, in general, rarer than SS sleevebands, but do not bring the same prices (with a few exceptions) because there is less collector interest.
I've got 9 or 10 of them, acquired over the years.
