SS Armband - Fuhrer H. Qu

[player2u]

I have had this armband for some time and aquired it from a former OSS agent. He was and American who posed as a German officer during WWII.

I would like to know if anyone has seen one of these in a book or on the web.

I would also like to get an est. value.

Thanks

Hopefully the link above works. Otherwise just google W. Feromin armband

But no one has ever seen this Fuhrer H.Qu armband. It is not fancy and its the real deal with SS stamps.

Sorry, but these W. Feromin armbands are not original, and only have a passing resemblance to originals...

I just updated the site with Wittmann's letter. The Sword is real. The knot was purchased from Max show 12 years ago. - The items pictured all came from the same OSS Vet with exception of the Knot. Whittmann has 2 of these swords right now on his website. Both are were made in Dachua. This forum has rules about being respectful. If you say it is a fake then provide technical reasons.

The SS armband with the KM tag on the back is fake.

The Führerhauptquartier armband is also fake because it is has the wrong spelling. It is Führerhauptquartier all one word NOT Führer Haupt Quartier (3 words)

The Cuff Titles are hypenated so its two words

The SS armband with the KM tag on the back is fake.

It is one word and therefore will not have a capital letter H or Q like your armband has.

As for providing links, have these:-
