It’s easy for a collector to find printed, machine embroidered, and cellon Kreigsmarine uniform eagles. But locating the hand embroidered bullion examples is another thing all together. Recently out of a collection we purchase 8 of these in a grouping from a very discriminant collector who specialized in the finest Kreigs items . Each of these eagles are presented in a separate offering on our site. All have been at one time sewn on Kreigs officer’s uniforms during the period, and show light wear to that effect. All show little variances on how the seamstress applied their skill in hand stitching these beautiful gold bullion eagles. These make a fantastic display with your 3rd Reich cloth or Kreigs collection. $165.00
This is a nice set of Panzer Overcoat Tabs, they are quite a bit larger in size that other tabs. Wrapping around is the pink pipping with a black cotton center. The under side of the tabs are a multi piece construction of both cotton and wool. There are a few light moth holes that can be seen but nothing that affects the integrity. $295.00
I’ve seen these eagles for over 30 years, and every one of them was a post war reproduction. You had to figure, that somewhere there must have been a real example, that the copies were based on. And in this listing, finally a real period SS high command vehicle pennant eagle, is what you are viewing. The backing material, unlike any reproduction, is of a unique cheese cloth type fabric. It is wavy cut on the left and right sides, very much like we see the un-issued tropical SS sleeve eagles. The 4 corners of this off white backing material, show residue of an adhesive. No doubt this rare SS pennant eagle was stuck in a vet’s scrap book, that contained his war time memories. All of the bullion that comprises the eagle is machine sewn, and is fantastic! You just don’t see a real example, of this rare SS eagle, offered to collectors all that often. And it is truly, one SS cloth item, that is missing from many advance collections. What a stunning display piece this would make for your collection. $750.00
