Deutsche Wehrmacht armband

[Pretorian81]

Hello guys,

Is this an original Deutsche Wehrmacht armband or not?
I think it's good but I'm not sure..
It has an unreadable stamp.

It doesn't glow under UV-light.

These printed versions are much more scarce than the common BEVo type and are hard to authenticate. This one looks fairly convincing, the materials and printing appear consistent with originals. On something like this it may come down to a gut feeling. I might tend to give this one the benefit of the doubt.

Thanks!

Guys?

Greetings All,

I have seen a few variations of Volkstrum armbands and I actually like this one. As with all printed items you have to be careful. I cannot positively say that it is good but I like it.

Do you have the same type of armband as mine at the photo?
Or are they not yours?

Nice armbands Ron. The printed one you show is so close to the one at the start of this thread, I think both are real. Here is my printed version, this was brought back by a local D-Day vet.

Thanks for those additional photos of your armbands guys.

Now I see the other printed armbands,and like Chris already mentioned, I think I can be pretty sure that my armband is original isn't it?

Greetings,

Sven
