Caleb,
Can only generalize from limited pictures....but here goes:
A-SS Wool Armband- has obvious condition problems & crude resewing- but looks o.k.
Org. Todt Leadership Armband- pattern is referanced and appear proper construction....stands a chance.....
Pre-1936 pattern unknown Police or Fire Leaders Armband- similiar looking to above but non-typical tresse, never seen this patch on an Armband before (usually seen listed as a "unid. Polz. Sports eagle"), and the look doesn't give me a warm feeling....Not Referanced.
That said....all need to be blacklighted!!!! If they pass that test, take detailed pictures front, back, inside, etc., etc. for a real opinion....the 1st two I like from what I can see....the 3rd (Polz.) I don't like at first impression...
Hope this helps....
John G.

Armbands
I concur with John G. The SS and Org Todt armbands look 100% original. The Police armband is a common fantasy piece in circulation, although the bullion stripes are a new twist I have not seen before. I would really be interested in offering to purchase the Org. Todt armband if it is for sale. Thanks, ChrisComment

As said the police armband is a fantasy piece and the Org. Todt looks very similar to the police armband in construction & IMHO it is also bad.Comment
