Ss Armband Opinions Please?

[Mauser]

Hi gents
<O</O
I have recently been offered this SS armband, I believe the swastika and outer circle is machine embroidered. If good what would be a fair price to pay? <O</OI would appreciate any opinions you may have regarding the authenticity of this piece, before I proceed any further with the seller.

Many thanks in advance

Kindest Regards

Mark <O</O

Loose thread Repair by hand

Looks like a hand repair to the machine stiching which seems to have come loose at some stage .

Rear of band Stripe

Black Stripe merges(machine weaved) into red outer stripe

Mark,
the band itself is a good woven example but someone has added (rather badly at that) the black stripes IMO to make it an SS example, there is an SS example that is totally woven outer black lines and all, save your money,
cheers,
Gary
