Officer's Tabs

[Felix]

two rank tabs

[Felix]

This is another with side prongs

[Felix]

These few pics in NO way covers it all but it shows a few variations of the rank collar tabs seen from the reverse.

Two kinds of pips on the same tab. Likeley a field promotion. Im sorry that i do not have any pic of the reverse because it is on a collar. Domed style and the more common style.

Two links to sets sold on a dealers site.
The first link is to a repro pair IMO and the second pair shows an original side prong on the rank tab (IMO).
Variation is huge!

Mike C; Yours are classical, if I dare to say, text book style! And punched through the collar!

Hi Felix,

Thank you for your kind words. Here is the tunic in wear by an officer of Das Reich.

Mike C;

I now recognise the tunic and lot you show! It is indeed a very very nice find!
