Truly worn Waffen-SS 1943/44-pattern cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen') as executed in typical 'BeVo'-weave-pattern as was intended for a member within the: 17. SS-Panzergrenadier-Division 'Götz von Berlichingen'

This is an attractive - truly worn and carefully tunic-removed and naturally 100% original! - Waffen-SS-related, 1943/44-pattern cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen') as executed in typical 'BeVo'-weave-pattern depicting the machine-woven text (ie. 'Latin'-script) in silver-grey linnen as was intended for usage by a member of the: 17. SS-Panzergrenadier-Division 'Götz von Berlichingen' and that comes in an overall nice- (ie. clearly used- and/or worn-), condition. The period-shortened cuff-title (that measures now approx. 34 cms. in length) has the typical 'salt and pepper'-styled 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. 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: I recently acquired it at the SOS in Louisville. The piece shows obvious staining, wear and/or age (and is somewhat wrinkled) and does show some of its stitching-holes with which it was once tunic-attached: moreover, is it still folded as how it came of the tunic (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece was once (period?) cut into two pieces and was as such mounted onto a tunic: it does show its repair (as can be noticed on the pictures). Simply a great opportunity to acquire a very attractive and actually scarcely encountered, Waffen-SS 'BeVo'-type cuff-title for a competitive price!
