This attractive example is neatly greyish- (ie. silver-white-) coloured- and is executed on a (slightly thicker-shaped) tropical-styled, light-brownish- (ie. typical tan-) coloured and/or also linnen-based, background. The piece comes - as stated above - in an overall very nice and/or clearly shirt-removed condition: it was clearly once machine-stitched onto a tunic and still shows some of its period stitching-remains (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece - which measures from wing-tip to wing-tip approximately 9,6 cms. - is just a tiny bit stained (ie. clearly sun-faded) and does show some minimal staining as caused by years of storage and/or moderate wear but has maintained very nice detail overall. The piece is carefully period-trimmed- ie. folded and can as such easily serve to restore any tropical LW-type-shirt. The piece - that was once glued into a scrapbook or alike - still shows some of the period stitching-holes and/or thread-remains as can be seen on the pictures. These 'tropical' (ie. DAK or 'Deutsches Afrika Korps') breasteagles as intended for the tropical-shirts can easily be graded 'scarce'. Simply a very nice attractive example that will be very hard to be upgraded!
