Hello everyone,

This looks very nice . The backing is cloth not paper as more commonly seen . I hope it is orginal .

Appreciate all comments,

Thank you,

Oh, yes I can see it sewn on the uniform now. Yours is in super mint condition. Thank you and congrats to you too Francesco,
Best,

I don't believe it's a period example

Should be "paper-backed" as you stated. Bullion is not the correct type in upper inner wing. Black threading should follow the body down the inner legs. Swastika should be same "tinseling" bullion as inner wings and upper leading edge of wings.
Overall the whole quality of the stitching is not to standard.
