DAF Flat-Wire Cap Eagle

'Deutsche Arbeitsfront' Cap Eagle as worn on the DAF Overseas Caps. The DAF (German Labor-front), originally founded in 1933, became an official NSDAP organization in October 1934. DAF's most important goal was to enforce the political stability of the large mass of work force. The 'Werkscharen' were established in February 1935 and were to act as the NSDAP's 'watch-dog' in industrial factories. The eagle is executed in the neat so-called 'BeVo'-weave technique in 'flat-wire' silver threads on a dark navy-blue/black background. Nice example in mint and unissued condition!
