    Original or not?

    I'm told these are original late war sleeve eagles but I'm no expert and would appreciate opinions. Thanks in advance for your help

      Eagles

      Not. Also the fact they were made upside down is not a good sign.

          An excellent book was just released on SS cloth penned by M Beaver and M Bando titled "Insignia and Artifacts of the Waffen-SS".

          Get it!

          even upside down and backwards they are still bad, VERY BAD!

            I was told that I have to post them upside down on an iPad in order for them to be rightside up on a windows computer.....is that incorrect?
            In any case, it sounds like you're saying they are not original. Is that correct?

              Have that book and am aware nothing like these are shown in it but I was also under the impression that the book does not show examples of all the variants.

                All upside eagles are not original. No way.

                    I did suspect that they were bad and appreciate the feedback that confirms that they are not original.

                      John at Germanwarbooty.com just sold one of these for $300 (see his SS cloth insignia section in the "Just In" portion). In his description he mentions that it is Dachau made and is one the the ugliest and rarest versions. So, are these in fact original or did John unknowingly sell a reproduction. Your thoughts would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.

                        The 'shrugging eagle' was found by the sheet at the SS-BW within the Dachau complex ... these are not 'shrugging eagles' and in my honest opinion you should send it back for a refund.

                            I think Bill Shea had one of these for sale as an original not too long ago...

                              I'm sure he will be very grateful to you for pointing it out to him Arran
