Wallonien & Theodore Eicke Cuffs
Tom,
The Wallonien cuff title has the heavy wide embroidery lettering that lack serrifs associated with officer quality cuff titles. Additionally, the embroidery is of extremely poor execution. Refer to known examples of officers' cuffs of hand embroidered execution and you will immediately see the difference. Also beware of the tale of "locally manufactured in the field" cuff titles such as these. The covering of the embroidery on the reverse is constructed of coarse stiff cheese cloth and black paper, another red flag.
Your Theodore Eicke regimental cuff title is of the same manufacture as the Wiking book marker ribbon that accompanied the reference published by Munich Verlag many, many years ago. Notice the lack of salt and pepper detail on the back of your cuff title as opposed to that displayed on the reverse of the original "Der Fuhrer" by Mr. Thomas. On copy "BeVo" cuff titles, an immediate red flag is the wide white woven line on both the top and bottom of the reverse of the cuff title. A real BeVo will have a single line (top and bottom on the reverse) that under magnification will actually appear as a series of dots and very, very narrow in execution.

badges
Hello,
I would post the badges in the correct sections of the forum for review. If one is bad then the whole lot might be bad.
