Superb, Waffen-SS 1943/44-pattern- and neatly 'BeVo'-woven cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen') that is entitled: 'Osttürkischer Waffen-Verband der SS' and that comes in a 'virtually mint ie. unissued', condition
This is a very attractive - and naturally 100% original! - Waffen-SS-related, 1943/44-pattern and typical green-coloured cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen für Unterführer und Mannschaften der Waffen-SS') depicting the machine-woven Latin script-text: 'Osttürkischer Waffen-Verband der SS' and that comes in a simpy never used- ie. 'virtually mint ie. unissued', condition. The full-length cuff-title (that measures approx. 44 cms. in length) has the typical 'salt and pepper' reverse-backing and shows all details of an original, period specimen. This band was with certainty produced by the 'Bandfabrik Ewald Vorsteher' (ie. 'BeVo') in Wuppertal but is void of the interwoven company-name on one of the ends (something that is more often the case). This cuff-title is a 100% text-book (and as stated above) original example that originates from a US-veteran who 'liberated' this piece in 1945. The piece shows some truly minimal staining and age (and is somewhat wrinkled) and was never used nor worn and does show some minimal age and/or slight fraying on its ends (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a great opportunity to acquire a very attractive Waffen-SS-related 'BeVo'-type cuff-title for a competitive price!
