No problem, Lew! I thought you might be wondering about that. On mine they were intact and still holding down the tassel on the back. But the way I had it displayed on the shelf between my other SS headgear at the time, it would have looked much better with the tassel hanging down to one side next to the Bevo badges on the front (like in many period pics).
I grappled with the idea of snipping these threads for a long time, but just couldn't bring myself to do it. Luckily you don't have that dilemma.

Nowadays jerkoffs are actually removing the badges from these fezzes to embellish real (or fake) Heer M-43's!

Wow! Looks unissued!! Green Fez's are very cool!! I agree that is is a very nice original, but that is one horribly sloppy folding & sewing on the Totenkopf and Adler!! Dock that guy one days salary!!!!

I think where these were sewn there was no pay to dock.

HOORAY!! I was waiting for someone to reply about my "poor attempt at some gallows humour"!

Thanks!
