This is a truly attractive - truly used- and/or worn and with certainty fairly rarely encountered! - bright-blue-coloured example of a WH (Heeres) related armband (ie. 'Armbinde') entitled: 'Front-Sammelstelle' being an example of the 'entirely-woven'-type in a technique similar to the 'BeVo'-weave pattern and that comes in an (I deem) clearly- ie. moderately used- and/or worn, condition. These linnen-based armbands were presumably intended for usage by military staff-members (ie. officers) tasked with traffic-control duties at the front and were presumably worn on the left upper-arm of the regular WH (Heeres) greatcoats and/or (officer-) tunics. This example - which was once 'off-factory sewn-together but that comes 'loose' as found - has a total size of approximately 40 cms. and is 10,5 cms. wide - and is constructed from bright-blue-coloured linnen and shows the neatly interwoven (and golden-yellow-toned) text: 'Front-Sammelstelle'. The armband is totally void of an ink-stamp (ie. 'Dienstsiegel') and is just a tiny bit stained and is moreover a tiny bit wrinkled. The piece is very nicely constructed and does show only moderate age ie. staining (simply caused by decades of storage and/or fair wear). This example originates from a larger-sized armband-collection that was compiled over many years and that I recently acquired for the web-site. Simply a very attractive - and with certainty fairly rarely encountered! - WH (Heeres) related armband that is I deem, accordingly priced!
