    SS Cloth Armband

    If this were a wool armband, I could affirm or deny that it is real myself. I have a wool one at home here. The cloth ones...I have no idea. No RZM tag inside.
    Take a gander & let me know if she's any good.
    Thanx,
    Tim

          Looks like a one-piece wool swastika applied to a wool disk? I would call this fake, I haven't seen an original constructed this way.

            That ain't wool. I'll pull my wool armband out tonight and take a pic and you can compare. This one is all cloth construction. Cotton? Might be, but it sure ain't wool.
            I'd do it now, but I'm home alone for the first time....taking care of my 3 week old daughter.

                This is kinda' strange. I had it at the Joliet Military Show the other day & an SS collector/dealer did a hands on and verified that it was OK. His name is Gary Martin & I am sure that those of you from the Midwest area will agree that Gary doesn't make mistakes of this kind.
                I also had an PM from a gentleman & he mentioned that this armband is a pre-WW2 manufacture, from the mid 1930's.

                  Armband is fine,you will get ALL kinds of opinions on these,especially when they have no tag.There were many types of SA and SS cloth bands.Some like certain ones,some dont.Just the way it is,to be 100% sure a tag has to be on it,or a hands on of teh material.Youll get yays and nays all day with these on here.Personally I like it.Go with Gary's opinion as he had the material in his hands.

                    Wewelsburg,
                    I was puzzled about the divided opinions. On here, with the talent always omnipresent, I couldn't understand why it wasn't simply a yea or nay. Thank you for clearing things up for me.
