Luftwaffe Fleigerbluse Eagle questions?

[docmaster1]

Hello fellas!

I have a Fleigerbluse that I have my eye on but it looks weird in several aspects. For one the eagle looks like it’s embroidered into the FB itself. At first glance I liked the eagle but after looking at it and seeing the back with the embroidered Swaz I am not so sure. I have never seen something like this, although I am no expert so who knows it could be legit!

I know the photos aren’t great but I did the best I could to zoom in.

Thoughts?

That is strange did you have the tunic in hand ? Maybe the swastika was picked out and it was collector restored? Can you get better pictures

Hey Lenny

I do not have the FB in hand. It’s at an auction in France (I think) and the photos just are not clear. It just threw me for a loop since I never saw something embroidered on the backside.

I know they are bad! I will send a message and ask for better photos and see what they say. Hopefully I can get them.

Removed and restored swastika..

Thank you sir. It’s on an admin FB and if the price is right maybe I will pick it up then.

Thanks to all that replied. If I happen to get more photos I will post as well.

Any pics of the collar tabs, shoulder boards or markings?

[docmaster1]

These are the only photos. I tried to zoom in the best I could. Nothing strikes me as a red flag in particular. The collar tabs seem ok from my experience, although I have never handled or seen a pair of these types of admin boards.

Thoughts?

Better pictures. This auction is in Belgium.

Hello Werner,

Thank you for those. Do you have photos of underneath the collar? I tried to send an email asking for more photos but I haven’t heard back from them.

Also do you think the auction house is reputable? Have you don’t business with them? I found out about the auction on WAF but I am always so worried about buying from auctions houses!

Hello Dave,

It's a well known French auction house but the items description is far to be accurate.
You have to know what you buy. They do not mention the flaws.
I tried once to buy an item but i was overbided.
You must consider auction fees as well. Usually, they are 25 to 30 percents added to the final price and you still have to pay the shippings and custom fees.

I do not have picture of underneath the collar. The pictures are from their website.
If you need extra information, you should contact Emilie Weyl.
