Hi Peter, I am sorry to say that the Bevo style "LAH" cyhpers on the shoulder boards are a fantasy item. This type of cyhper did not exsist during WW2. These hit the collectors market in the 1980's and have been dicussed before on this forum. If you do a search you should be able to find the thread.
Sorry once again.
Cheers, Ade.

I agree with what ade has said, FAKE

cheers,

Strange. The shoulder boards came from maybee the largest collector in Sweden. I guy who had some 20 to 40 SS Cuff titles, 3 or 4 Knight Crosses and several SS camo garments, a guy i had talks with my self. Anyway thanks. I just talked to the dealer who did the transfer of these shoulder boards and he will take them back, and give me money or some Iron Crosses

Peter,
Regardless of what this collector has/had in his collection this does not alter the fact the woven lah emblems are fake,

I just recently seen a dot pattern SS uniform with the same shoulder boards sell for $4 G's. I told the collector I didn't like the bevo woven cyhpers, but he had to have it.
