Some SS insignia

[Gary Symonds]

The "pudgy" eagle is a well known fake.

I had hoped for more of your opinins on these insigna.

The Eagle is a fake that's for sure.

I think that the others are original , except for the shoulder board in picture 11 and 12.
It is black on the reverse, not fieldgrey.

Would you agree?

I have good feeling also for the one with black backing. Seem ok to me.
But to judge ss shoulderbords from pics. and also in hand could be difficult.. atleast my experiance. If rayon/silk you will feel the different when you tuch the piping with your finger.
Those other boards seem 100%, also runic tab. Rank tab i guess ia ok also.
Hope to see you soon Hoggtann!

I don´t like the first board. Maybe it is the foto, but i don´t like the piping. This is not a correct Rayon-piping IMO!

Tab

I like that moleskin tab!! Nice close-up photo like this should help other collectors.

Thank you for your feedback.

I have looked at all the boards again, and I must say that the piping on all three looks and feel identical to me.

The only ting I was a bit worried about was the board with the black felt on ther rear, but I now that not all had fieldgrey reverse.


I just have a Canon digktal pocket camera, but it takes good pictures.
