Stunning, WH (LW o. Heeres) cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen') entitled: 'Kreta' that comes in a presumably issued- (albeit simply never used- ie. 'virtually mint'-), condition

This is a truly very attractive - and presumably issued albeit simply never worn! - example of a WH (Luftwaffe o. Heeres) cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen') entitled: 'Kreta' and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. 'virtually mint'-), condition. The cuff-title comes in a full-length- (ie. absolutely non-shortened) condition (and measures approximately 44 cms. as to be expected). Both ends are void of any fraying and shows the more often seen yellow-stitching on both ends (as can be seen on the pictures). The cuff-title just shows some minimal age ie. staining caused by decades of storage and handling over the years (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be stated that these 'Kreta'-cuff-titles are not to be regarded as commemorative cuff-titles (such as the 'Afrikakorps' cuff-title) but were regarded as official awards that needed official recognition (and entries in both 'Soldbuch' and/or 'Wehrpass'). This example was recently found at a German private-household and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply a very attractive example that will be impossible to be upgraded and that is priced according to its truly wonderful condition!
