Superb, 'BeVo'-like cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen') entitled: 'Afrikakorps' being a with certainty issued and worn example that comes in an overall nice- (ie. minimally shortened- and presumably once tunic-attached-), condition
This is a very attractive - and clearly issued and worn ie. presumably once tunic-attached! - example of the typical 'BeVo'-like cuff-title (or: 'Ärmelstreifen') entitled: 'Afrikakorps' as was executed in so-called: 'flat-wire'-type, silver-coloured 'braid' as interwoven on a rust-brown- (ie. darker-green) coloured background and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. presumably worn- and I deem carefully tunic-removed-), condition. The piece is as stated above minimally-shortened and measures approximately 39 cms. in length (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece was - I deem - period-folded in order to be stitched onto a tunic (something that was more often done). As usual, are both ends 'unfinished' and do show some normal fraying as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). This example was stored as such for years by the veteran to whom it was issued and/or used. As most certainly known are these 'Afrikakorps'-cuff-titles copied at a large scale: this is naturally a 100% original item that shows the various details as such (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece was never cleaned and shows some age and/or staining simply caused by decades of storage and/or moderate wear: it was never part of a collection before and came as such from a private-household in Germany. Simply a very attractive - and truly worn and/or presumably tunic-removed! - example of this desirable 'BeVo'-like 'Afrikakorps'-cuff-title!
