    Collar tab unterscharfuhrer

    Hello Gentlemen,

    Is this a good tab? Got this from the heritage of a vet, but I'm not a ss collector. I thought it could also be NSKK possibly, is that correct?




    Thanks in advance.

    Tab

    Jugding by the length, I think it's an SA tab. Gruppe Berlin-Brandenburg (assuming the pip was originally silver, as it appears). I guess it could be NSKK as well. Not sure of their dimensions. Interesting that it appears to be doeskin, which appears on later SA tabs.

      Tab

      After re-examining the photo, and measuring the ratio of height to width (I had to judge because of the unraveling), the dimensions appear the same as SA regulations, i.e., the heighth of the tab is approx. 69% of the width. Measuring perpendicularly, your tab should be 58mm X 40mm to conform to SA regulations. Of course, we all know they certainly do vary.

        Sorry, I don't think it's doeskin. It's just the weave where the nap has worn off. Definitely an original tab, judging by the backing material.

          Hello, Thanks for your reply.

          I had it checked today at a fair by some dealers. They all say its an originall piece, can't judge it's NSKK or SS. But that's fine by me, it gets a nice place among the other insignia in my cabinet!

            Measure the tab in millimeters, let us know, and that will help.

                Sa

                SA tabs are approx. 58mm X 40mm. From photos I've seen, I believe that NSKK tabs are the same. The NSKK grew out of the Motor SA, so that makes sense. I believe the SA was a larger organization, so my guess is that your tab is probably SA (Berlin-Brandenburg).

                      Tab

                      My pleasure. No way to be 100% sure of anything, and "likely" has to be good enough sometimes. Definitely authentic, though. On this tab, I'm basing originality mostly on the backing material.
