OK, now that I have your attention with the odd thread title let me get to the heart of the matter...........
HELP !!!!!!!!!!
If I look at one more TK graphic, one more sleeve eagle photo, or read one more reference book I think my eyes are going to start bleeding. Honestly..... they all look alike now !!!!!!!! I mean one more photo and I'm gonna start drinking heavily
So I am starting my own Central Illinois Waffen SS Big Brother / Big Sister Group
.
Seriously I desperately need help from an experienced collector in this field that is willing to take a newbie under his / her wing and help navigate him through the mind field that is Waffen SS Insignia.
If someone is interested to help me understand things like: which direction the thread pattern in a collar tab seperates authentic from fake, I would be a very willing student.
The more I have "researched" the topic, the more I realize I am wholly unprepared to tackle this area on my own. There comes a point where all the images and books simply cannot hold a candle to seeing authentic pieces.
OK, anyone willing to help, please feel free to pm me.
Thanks,
Andrew
