The SS FM armband is a fantasy item from the 70's that pops up from time to time.

Here's an old Epier auction (they keep their auctions around for a LONG time) for an embroidered version complete with fake SS paper tag. The price was a mere $15K.

The yellow waffen-SS one looks ok to me?, the ss fm one is hard to say. I honestly think know one really has enough information to confirm anything about this armband. I have one that has a correct RZM tag and ss stamp. I think it may be possible that there were real examples. but again its hard to say even with mine which i think is real. this is just my opinion.... but i would go to a real expert for advice on these unusual items, not here. this is people sharing there thoughts through experience in the hobby and will often leave you wondering still if it could be real or fake, an expert will give you a straight answer.
good luck

ok the yellow one is fake sorry, the ss ruins are not correct.
but the ss fm one is still questionable
