I picked up these items while I was visiting friends in Germany. I went to an antique dealer who is also a friend and he had these items that were left (originally he had more) from the estate of Wilfried Limmel, he was in five different SS divisions. I have blacklited these items and they do not shine. The cuff title is 40cm long. He also had the Blood Order but it was a Souval and was numbered 1692 (don't know if it was assigned to Limmel or not).

Shoulder board is original, but the cuff title and collar tabs are not original.

I believe the cufftitle to be of the style that was made by the veteran's association after the war.

The cufftitle is indeed on of the Vet Association pieces. One came with each of the books about the divisions. They were for bookmarks.Comment

Get your money back!!! From the estate of so and so.... is a load of BS. Never buy an item strictly based on the story,
especially if you're not up to speed on these (genuine ones)!Comment
