Printed-version of a so-called: 'Ost'- (ie. forced-labour-) breast-patch (ie. 'Brustabzeichen für Zwangsarbeiter o. Fremdarbeiter') being a moderately used example that comes in a nicely confectioned ie. pre-folded condition

This is a typical 'printed-pattern'-example of a so-called: 'Ost'- (ie. forced-labour-) breast-patch (ie. 'Brustabzeichen für Zwangsarbeiter o. Fremdarbeiter') being a moderately used example that comes in a nicely confectioned ie. carefully pre-folded, condition. The bright-blue-toned patch shows the printed 'Ost'-characters and equally blue-coloured-coloured rim. These patches were worn by the various forced-labour-staff coming from the occupied eastern-territories that worked in the war-industry all over Europe. The patch - that shows some moderate age ie. staining - is executed in the typical 'printed'-pattern and was (presumably) used ie. tunic-removed: it was once glued into an album or alike and does show some glued paper-remains on its back (as can be seen on the pictures). I deem that I did price this interesting breast-patch accordingly!
