Description
This an attractive - truly used- and/or tunic-removed and actually not that easily encountered! - so-called: WH (Luftwaffe) 'FallschirmschĆ¼tzen-Abzeichen in Stoff' (or: cloth-based paratroopers'-jump-badge) being a nicely machine-embroidered specimen that comes in a clearly issued, moderately worn and/or carefully tunic-removed-, condition. The piece is neatly machine-embroidered in multi-coloured- (and/or linnen-based) thread and does show some obvious age, wear and/or staining. This particular example shows great pronounced detail in order to closely resemble its metal-based counterparts. This example - which is void of an additional 'backing' - was stored as such for years by the veteran to whom it was issued. These cloth-based versions were preferred by the soldiers, NCOs and/or officers 'stationed in the field' for obvious reasons. The piece was carefully 'fine-trimmed' and does show some minimal moth-damage in its centre: it does show, however, lots of character. Simply an attractive and fully 'text-book' example of a WH (Luftwaffe) 'FallschirmschĆ¼tzen-Abzeichen in Stoff' that is (I deem) accordingly priced!
