Stunning - and actually extremely rarely encountered! - Waffen-SS 1943/44-pattern cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen') as was intended for a member serving within the: 12. SS-Panzer-Division 'Hitlerjugend'

This is a very attractive - truly extremely rarely found and naturally 100% original! - Waffen-SS-related, 1943/44-pattern cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen') depicting the machine-woven Latin script-text in silver-grey linnen, as was intended for usage by a member of the: 12. SS-Panzer-Division 'Hitlerjugend' and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. presumably issued- and I deem moderately used- ie. once tunic-attached-), condition. The (almost) full-length cuff-title (that measures approx. 38,5 cms. in length) is of the typical 'semi-BeVo'-design and shows all details of an original, period specimen. This band was presumably produced by the 'Bandfabrik Ewald Vorsteher' (ie. 'BeVo') in Wuppertal but is void of the interwoven company-name on one of its ends (something that is always the case with these 'semi-BeVo'-design cuff-titles). 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: since then it was part of an extensive SS-insignia-collection. The piece shows some truly minimal staining and age (and is somewhat wrinkled) and was as stated above (I deem) worn ie. once tunic-attached: it does show some minimal age and/or wear (as can be seen on the pictures). Of additional interest is the fact that this example shows two (period-added!!) snaps that were attached for easy tunic-attachment- ie. removal (as can be seen on the pictures). I have seen similar examples being sold for much more than my asking-price. Simply a great opportunity to acquire a very attractive - and actually very rarely encountered! - Waffen-SS 'BeVo-like'-type cuff-title for a competitive price!
