From the initial photos the skull tabs right eye looked like along with some shiny effects. Moth bites... I leave no further comments on that and I leave to the guys that collects TK. I dont.
I hope its a good one!
By grade tabs I trust it you mean the SS general tabs? Have you not got enough comments?
Thank you very much for your comments and knowledge [emoji106]
I will keep the tk tab and let the grade tabs go ..
Any idea about the value of such a tab like the tk ?
Correct me if I am wrong ? but I have never seen a original early pre-1940 deathshead collar tab embroidered on velvet like material ? can anyone show me one ?

The TK tab is original and most likely made by the maker 349
Interesting tab. I wish it was in a little better shape.
It does have a few of the characteristics that are found in 349s but there's something missing that I like to see from that maker. Hint - It's in the smile.
question if the age moth damage is original
we see lately quite aged tabs to cover that they are copys
I looked thru mine, non has this blk base all are on wool base except the BeVo style examples
cannot comment further on this one
The skull's nasal cavity is very poorly made, as are the cross-bones.
I'm NOT a fan of this collar tab, especially considering the price they're going for.
For that amount of dough, I'd want to feel warm and fuzzy............not getting that feeling here..............
TK tab looks good to me. I am surprised some here dont like it. I dont think that material is velvet. I have a TK tab (officer tab ) on velvet, it looks fine and original.....but because its on velvet....it stays in the repro box. I've had it for years and no one I consider knowledgeable has has given me confidence original TKs were done on velvet. But I don't think the posted tab is velvet.
The General tabs dont look good. Pass on those.
