Italian Made Wehrmacht Breast Eagle

[John4022]

Hi guys, I wanted to share my Italian made breast eagle that I just picked up. I’ve been looking for one for 3 years so I am very happy to finally add one to my collection. It goes great with my Italian made m43 cap. I hope you guys like it!

Very nice bird. Do you have an image of one still on a tunic?

That was a great patch you used to own Terry

Thanks. Collecting cutoff eagles were addictive to me years ago. [Bottom middle trop. KM is a fake.]

Who was maker of this type of eagle in Italy ? "Berven Padova" ?

I believe the hat is made by Berven Padova but as for the insignia I have no clue.
