Superb - and extremely rarely encountered! - example of a 'BeVo'-type armshield depicting a red-coloured 'Tamga'-symbol, as was intended for a volunteer who served within the 'Deutsche Wehrmacht' (ie. within the 'Crimean-Tartar Legion')
This is a truly very attractive - and extremely rarely encountered! - example of a 'BeVo'-type armshield (ie. 'Ärmelschild') depicting a red-coloured 'Tamga'-symbol, as was intended for a volunteer who served within the 'Deutsche Wehrmacht' (ie. within the 'Crimean-Tartar Legion') that is coming in an overall very nice (ie. virtually mint- ie. unissued-), condition. This example was specifically intended for 'Ostvölker'-related volunteers serving within the 'Deutsche Wehrmacht' (ie. for members who served within the 'Crimean-Tartar Legion') and simply cannot be upgraded. These - original - 'officially' German produced arm-shields as executed in the 'BeVo'-type weave (ie. German manufacture by the company of 'BeVo'-) are considered extremely rare (to date only a few original examples have surfaced and in reference-works they are only depicted as an illustration). A similar example is, however, part of the famous 'George Petersen Collection' as can be seen in the attached picture taken from the Bender reference-book: 'Foreign Legions - Part 4'). The piece on offer is void of any staining nor damage and come as 'straightly cut-of the role': it was simply never used- nor worn (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that these neat armshields as intended for volunteers within the 'Crimean-Tartar Legion' rank amongst the rarest examples within the colourful series. Simply a great occasion to acquire a very attractive piece of German-made, 'Ostvölker'-related armshield that is with certainty priced according to its unmistaken rarity and/or desirability!
