This is a neat example of a linnen-based arm-eagle (ie. 'Ärmeladler') as executed in the so-called: 'BeVo'weave style, as was intended for usage by an official of the: 'Deutsche Reichsbahn' ie. of the 'RVD Dnjepropetrowsk' (or: 'Reichsverkehrsdirektion Dnjepropetrowsk') and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. 'virtually mint- ie. unissued'-) condition. These attractive eagles - as woven in golden-yellow linnen on a black-coloured- and also linnen-based background - were worn on the darker-blue-coloured service-tunics and/or uniforms of the various officials within this organisation. This is a special arm-insignia-piece, that was intended for the staff working at one of the occupied railway-centres. There were several of these railway-related centres (= 'Reichsverkehrsdirektionen' or RVD) throughout Europe. This is a piece that was intended for a member of the: 'RVD (= 'Reichsvekehrs-Direktion') based in the town of Dnjepropetrowsk. The piece - showing a left-facing eagle as to be expected - comes in a 'mint- ie. unissued'- and/or never tunic-attached condition: it is a tiny bit stained caused by decades of storage only. This piece originates from a larger collection of various RB- ('Reichsbahn'-) related arm-eagles that was compiled over many years and that I recently acquired for the website. Simply a nice - and not that commonly encountered! - 'Deutsche Reichsbahn'-related arm-eagle!
