I would bow to my superiors as to the originality,but the main motherlode you acquired seem perfect,containing many rare treasures,so I would say they would be original by association...most (if not all) of these rautes have been reproduced...many very poorly..but of the separate acquisitions I would blacklight (U.V.) test them and burn test a fibre and if they pass that I'd be happy enough to accept them as original.
Hope this helps,
Ian Hulley

Hi Marc, I would say Angolia's SS cloth insignia book is a must although it is out of print, you can pick up copies here on the E Stand once in a while or via E Bay. Andrew Mollo's multi volume set on SS uniforms and insignia is another must. Once again out of print but these do show up.
Cheers, Ade.
