        Here is a cuff title I have that can be used for comparison purposes. For obvious reasons, I cannot photograph the back of the thing. I will say that the photo makes the emroidery appear more ragged than it is in person. This probably holds true for the one Mr. Betz posted as well.

        Thank you,
        George
        How about some nice shots of the whole tunic?

          Thank you, Doctor, for your opinion and advice. When time permits, I will do a comparison between those titles you provided and the one I have. Thanks for your help.

          Regards,

            Go

            dukhunter, you my want to drop in on Detlev Nieman and have a look at his Reichsführung-SS Cufftitle in his SS grouping. The F is different from mine and Delich's.

              Top: Hand embroidered

              Bottom: Flatwire

              I always ;iked the hand embroidered and machine enbroidered RZM bands over the rather boring flatwire and BeVo types.

                  Thank you, Doctor for the heads up concerning the cuff title on Detlev's site and for all your input on this subject. I did take a look at that cuff title plus the others posted and you are indeed correct, there can certainly be variations in these hand embroidered pieces! You've definitely brought me around to your way of thinking regarding hand emdroidered cuff titles. Thank you.

                  Bob, thanks for posting your two items. Your hand embroidered title is very, very similar to the one I posted and to the title Mr. Betz posted. Thank you for sharing them.

                  I will pull the tunic out this weekend and do a comparison between what I have and all those cuff titles posted here.

                  Thanks fellas and have a good weekend!
                  George
