Waffen-SS 'volunteer'-arm-shield as was intended for usage by soldiers of (amongst others) the: '13. Waffen-Gebirgs-Division der SS "Handschar" and that comes in a 'virtually mint- ie. unissued', condition
This is an attractive example of a Waffen-SS, Croatian 'volunteer'-arm-shield (ie. 'Ärmelschild') depicting the bright-red- and white-coloured 'checkered' shield as was intended for usage by soldiers of (amongst others) the: '13. Waffen-Gebirgs-Division der SS "Handschar" and that comes in a 'virtually mint'- (ie. 'unissued' and/or never tunic-attached-), condition: it does show some minimal fraying on the sides (as can be seen on the pictures). The shield retains very vivid colours and is of the later (1943/1944-period-) type and originated with certainty from the Dachau clothing-depots and originates from the USA where it was stored for decades as a so-called: 'veteran bring-back'-item. Simply a nice occasion to acquire a 100% guaranteed original Croatian-related volunteer-armshield that is I deem accordingly priced!
