Hello Esteemed collectors. I would be indebted to have opinions on a 'printed' SS Arm(?) eagle in a triangular shape.
I was given the above eagle by a collector friend who purchased it for a very nominal amount (not sure how much) from someone outside of a Militaria show many years ago (not inside, and not a dealer trying to pass it off as a rare item).
Being in no way an expert, just an occasional collector of cloth, I have not seen anything to resemble this - SS or Heer. It appears to be printed and is a white eagle on a black background. It is obviously well finished with a woven edge and backed with a coarse weave, off-white cloth. I believe the late war printed ones were much cruder.
Anyhow, I would value some experienced opinions, thank you.
Mike
