Nice Luftwaffe Breast Eagle

[John Hodgin]

Nice good one Harry. EM, just like Jerry's only not wool backed as the other three..

How does mine compare? Bevo vs. embroidered?

Unfortunately yours is a reproduction, when compared it shows that details are different.
The angle of the head is one .., the back between both wings etc .

Are you certain Jos? There are slight variations between these Bevo birds. The difference between weaving the metallic thread and fine rayon is enough for differences.

Have an EM from a veteran, will pull it tonight and compare and get back tomorrow.

I'm quite certain, John..

Woah!!!! Had not noticed these were copied so accurately, or perhaps you showed me and I forgot.Noticed at the SOS that the Bevo Meyer hat eagles are getting better. Regardless, note how Harry's has been made dirty to look more authentic.

Will be interesting to see if this thread is seen and the back is corrected.

[Jos L C]

Well, fortunately they still have some errors ..and hopefully they keep them like this.
There has been a thread about these eagles in FJ, but it's quite a while ago.

That is a shockingly deceptive copy. I can see the head fault quite clearly, but the area between the wings is not so obvious and the rear, in terms of construction, looks very close to an original.

Thanks, Jerry
