Single, RAD- (ie. 'Reichsarbeitsdienst') hand-embroidered, general-officers'-type collar-tab (of the 3rd pattern) as was intended for a high-ranked RAD-general-officer ('höhere Führer')

The truly attractive - regrettably single but nevertheless rarely encountered! - RAD- (ie. 'Reichsarbeitsdienst') hand-embroidered, general-officers' collar-tab (ie. 'Kragenspiegel für höhere Führer des Reichsarbeitsdienstes') was intended for usage by a very high-ranked RAD-general-officer (ie. 'Generalarbeitsführer bis Reichsarbeitsführer') that comes in an (I deem) just moderately used- and/or carefully tunic-removed-, conditon. The collar-tab on offer here is (I deem) of the third-pattern type (as was used between the years 1941 and 1945) and is constructed from the specific, black-coloured- and/or: typical 'velvet'-type wool. The tab shows extraordinary hand-embroidery and is constructed from (bright) golden-toned 'braid' as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). The attractive collar-tab - which shows the beige-brownish coloured- and/or buckram-based 'backing' as to be expected was (I deem) used as such and was once tunic-attached: it just shows some minimal age ie. staining simply caused by fair wear and/or decades of storage (as can be seen on the pictures). This interesting collar-tab originated from a smaller RAD-related insignia-collection I recently acquired for the web-site. It should be noted that these RAD-related, general-officers'-type collar-tabs as were intended for: 'RAD-Führer des höhere Dienstes' can easily be graded: 'rare'. Too bad that it is only a single specimen!
